Anyone know how to calibrate an Audio Control RTA.
Just got a used unit, and it came with the sensitivity at about plus 7 dB, where there's a pen mark.

Seems like quite a bit to be out, but how can I check it?

you used to just send it to carselectronics for calibration. that would be your first direction and see what they say. you need instruments that are true in order to get an accurate reading!
