I’m not saying that it’s a bad thing to have your equipment dead on but this is CB we’re talking about, not launching rockets or space shuttles.

In my opinion close is usually good enough. Think about all the sideband traffic where you have to use the clarifier to get someone straightened out.

My monitor has a recent calibration but calibrated against what? Beats me too. In my opinion I feel it’s more important for sideband than AM and close enough definitely works for AM.

If you got the cash to plunk down on a true calibration then by all means get it, especially if you’re running a shop and doing work on other guys stuff. If you’re just fooling with your own stuff, I don’t know that I’d waste the effort and money in it.
