You might calibrate the TX Gain. But it should not have changed this quickly. Odd.
Others will have advice too. 73, matt W6NIA On Tue, 02 Jul 2013 15:03:59 -0500, you wrote: >I hadn't used my K3 (#474) for a few days when I checked into the Elecraft SSB >net on Sunday. I immediately noticed that the Power Out bar graph was peaking only around 60-70W. It normally peaked closer to full output on voice peaks. Later I checked it with CW and it was still only hitting about 75% output. I confirmed the power control was set to 100W. I did an Auto tune before each test and this problem exists on every band. Both my LP-100 and my LP-100A digital watt meters showed about 120W output (both were factory calibrated by Larry). But the K3 bar graph still shows 25% lower than full output. This I also confirmed into a dummy load. I had not observed this before Sunday. All else appears to be functioning properly. > >I might be one or two software versions behind but have done all circuit >upgrades.
