Larry,
Those carrier meter numbers were with the AGC disconnected. The meter is
very sensitive to slight gain changes that way I notice. I'm going to
hook up the AGC and the RF section today and see what it does. I expect
it may be much more stable, the AGC action should make the meter act
more as a log mode. I'm hoping.
