exist in a non- smoking environment. This is a complete “shack radio setup”. I

Michael,
Do NOT replace the breaker with a larger current breaker UNLESS the wiring is
rated for the extra current.
15A = 14 gage wire
20A = 12 gage wire
30A = 10 gage wire

I understand the tuner holds tune data in memories for quicker tuning when
changing frequencies, and it stores separate data for each antenna port. My
question is, how many data points can these memories hold? In other words, how
many frequencies per band per antenna can it hold?

As a 32 year metrology lab supervisor, we used MANY Fluke DMM models. I can’t
speak highly enough of this manufacturer. Their actual accuracy is usually much
better than the published specs. And are very rugged. I would have no

I opened the utility to check for firmware. As soon as I opened it, I received
the “K3 waiting for firmware load.” message.
