Hi Dave,
The figures you detail below are what I see from my F3K too.
CW gives me about 85-90w PEP.
The F3K drives my Linear Amp UK Ranger 811H amp better than my old
FT1000MP did,
but not as well as my old Tentec Omni VI did, just the nature of the
beast I guess :-)
Being mainly a CW Op I hardly ever switch the amp on, in fact I can't
actually remember the last time I used it,
I find the F3K barefoot works just fine with a good antenna.
Mike.

Guys, I got my 3000 at Dayton this year and am just now starting to
really dig into it. First thing I noticed is that the drive seems low. I
connected the 3000 to my AL-811h amp, and right away I notice much lower
output from the amp Vs using it with my 756 Pro II. That was right after
Dayton. Today I had some time and connected the 3000 to a good pep watt
meter and dummy load.
Checked all bands for output using SSB, AM and FM. The am fm readings
were all about the same on all bands. 35 to 40 watts depending on band
and mode. But on SSB I'm getting 45 to 70 watts pep depending on the
band. This seems low to me. I looked under setup and click the PA
settings tab, it is blank? manual shows I should be able to make
adjustments.
Any Ideas?
Thanks for your time and input.
