[R-390] Calibration revisited

Well, I have the R-390/URR in pretty good shape, I think.  Even though 
the calibration signal is considerably stronger than before I still 
thought it was stronger.  Maybe I am just not remembering right.  That 
would not be a first!  I guess this is kind of hard to describe, but how 
strong or loud is the calibration signal supposed to be?  I was thinking 
it really moved the carrier level meter toward mid scale on 75 meters.  
However, I am not getting near that now.  Am I just remembering wrong or 
do I still have a problem?  The sensitivity of the receiver is good and 
everything seems to be working as it should.  Maybe I'm remembering 
another radio.....?  Any advice as to how strong is strong would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rick/K5IZ
