Re: [Elecraft] K3: SSB output power
I have excactly the same problem, also awaiting an answer Ian J Maude wrote: OK, I was waiting to see if the firmware sorted this but it has not. If I hold tune or use a key, I get full output power on my external meter. On SSB I get about 40-50W showing on peaks for a setting of 120W. This is the same whether into my trusty old Sommercamp YP-150Z or via the Bird into a Termaline. It is also exactly the same into a tuned dipole. This is also with the TXG VCE set to +3dB! If I connect the 101Z or another radio into these meters, no problemo. So can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I use a Goldline in the front connector and currently it is on front panel high with a mic gain of 10 and compression of 15. That kicks up the ALC just fine. The K3 is #455 with the stock 2.7kHz filter with FRQ set to -0.91 as per the label on the filter and no gain.
