Is there a macro command format for setting the power level to less than

I have a K3/100 and have tried PC0001 (for 100 mW) but it just goes to

Do you have sound coming out of the SignaLink? Connect it to an audio
amplifier and listen - if you hear tones, things should work.
If the SignaLink produces tones, does it activate the PTT output - test

If you want fewer than 10 watts, the x final digit (PCnnnx;) should be 0.
This disables the KPA3, and nnn is interpreted as 0.1 watt units, up to 12.0
watts. PC0500; should result in 050 x 0.1 or 5 watts. If the final digit

Ed,
Yes, that can be common with long wire antennas - that can happen with
any transceiver, it is not unique to the K3 or KX3.
Change the length of your long wire by 1/8 wavelength at the frequency
you are having trouble with.
The situation is that you have a high RF voltage on that antenna
