Re: Help needed adjusting SSB readout

Bjern
Before you start tweaking, be aware that the VR-5000 like most of the other
DC-GHz receivers will not tune precisely in SSB mode on all frequencies.
What I know is that the amount of tuning error varies depending upon the
last whole KHz digit. So you will find that the error for a frequency ending
in 0 KHz will be different than one ending in 4 KHz. The error is repeatable
but constant. So the best that you will be able to do is to adjust for 0 Hz
error on one or two digits - if the VR-5000 is like my VR-500s, then 0 KHz
and 5 Khz are the same error as are 1&6, 2&7, 3&8, and 4&9. If like my
AR-8600 then each KHz digit is
different. My recommendation is to learn to live with the offset. If you
want furhter info - email direct.
