This would be an easy choice for me. A week and a half ago I wore Sony MDR-7506 headphones for 24 hours in the ARRL RTTY Roundup and there was absolutely no discomfort plus they sound great. I bought these years ago after reading K9YC's comments and I never regretted it. John KK9A W4AAA in 2021

If an ATU tune finishes like that, with --, then it did not find a match! (and will be in a random state). You don't have enough power for a successful Tune. Try running the TX gain calibration with the K3 Utility. Or, with a dummy load, ATU in BYP, make sure TUN PWR is at "nor", then set pwr
