We hook dummy loads to ANT 2 on all our K3s during FD to prevent
inadvertent transmissions when no antenna is connected to it.
The ATU TUNE button is immediately above the ANT button and
fat-fingered/far-sighted ops unfamiliar with the K3 have been known to
hit the wrong one, especially on the higher bands where the noise floor
sometimes makes it difficult to detect the absence of an antenna.
