Manual PA Calibration

Each ANAN-10 owner needs to manually calibrate the Transmitter Power Output settings within PowerSDR™ to
ensure proper operation. Some versions of PowerSDR™ offered an "Automatic Calibration". Please do not use
any automatic calibration routine. Manual calibration per band is the only recommend method at this time.
Use the following manual calibration procedure to properly set/calibrate your ANAN-10 power output:
1. Connect a Dummy Load to ANT1 BNC port on the back panel of the Transceiver.
2. Click on menu selection, Setup, Transmit.
3. Set "TUNE" (left side of window), Power (W) to 100%
4. Select "FWD Pwr" from the "TX Meter" dropdown box in the upper right corner of the GUI.;
5. Enable the Antenna window by clicking on Setup ---> General ---> ALEX tab to access the antenna settings.
6. Select the Transmit antenna ANT1 where you connected the Dummy Load.
7. Select the PA settings tab on the Setup menu window.
