[Elecraft] ERR TXF

[Jens Køster]

My K3 keys up the first time I press the PTT button on the handmic - then
the 2nd time I press it, the message reads: ERR TXF

I´ve read the Error Message List in the manual on page 67:

ERR TXF Invalid transmit crystal filter bandwidth The crystal filter
selected for TX (with
CONFIG:FLTX) is either too narrow or
too wide. You must specify a filter that is
2.7 or 2.8 kHz wide for CW/DATA/SSB,
6 kHz for AM, and 13.0 kHz for FM).

I have the factory supplied 2.7 Khz filter and the 250 Hz CW filter
installed

I´m not quite sure what that means; could anyone clarify that for me please
TIA

[Elecraft] Underside of K3 getting very hot when transmitting

[Jens Køster]

My K3 100W ser. 1343 gets VERY hot on the underside where the PA transistors
are connected to the chassis. I´m testing at 100W FM into a dummyload for
about 3-5 minutes.

Is that normal?
