Hi, Roger.
 
What's in a name? Herein lies some of the confusion. On the K3, the 100W amp
is the KPA3, not KPA100 (K2 amp). As to your problem, would it not be more
efficient to use the low level output available from the KXV3(a) to drive
your transverter? This would eliminate the waste of all that power in the
dummy load, and provide a cleaner output, as the K3 LPA board (12w amp) is
not used, I believe.
 
Good luck,
Bruce, N1RX
