HI,
After a bit of button pressing I have noticed the following:
When doing a first tune using the internal ATU the tuning power is a set
5W. Immediately doing an extended tune the tuning power toggles to 10W.
It does indeed flash up in the VFO B window whilst tuning is in progress.
This is in no way controlled by any power level set by CONFIG>TUN PWR.
My CONFIG>TUN power setting is 18W which I use to preset my Acom 1000
amp tuning.
Regards,
Mike VP8NO

PS When using the tuner in the KPA1500 with the K3, it gets the 10
watts that I have as my default. I've not tested to see if that can be
changed to any other value.
I also attempted an ATU tune on the K3 into a dummy load, it's too fast
for power to be displayed. ;-)

On my K3, (Tech Mode on, just for clarity):
Config | TUN PWR is set at 10.0 watts. If I want it set at another
level, I turn the main VFO knob to set that level.
I just tested that into a dummy load after setting the output per above
to 9 watts and got 9 watts out (since reset to my default, 10).

Drew,
Page 60 of K3 Owner's Manual states: "TUN PWR Note 1: *TUN PWR* does not
pertain to *ATU TUNE, *which always uses 5 or 10 W and is internally
controlled"
Does anyone know how to change the 'internal control' to increase from
5 W
to 10 W?
