Re: need some help calibrating


Oops, just re-read my post and realized I better stop relying on my bad memory. I don't mean to say set the RS meter dial at 70, I do mean to say set it at 80 on the dial and set the calibration to 75dB in REW. This then gives you lots of headroom from 75dB so the RS meter needle won't peg when running measurements.

Sorry, for the mixup. I use an ECM8000 microphone and tend to forget how to use the RS meter.

Anyway, there's no reason for you not to manually turn up the input volume in REW if the automatic setting doesn't work for you.
