Hello everyone,
I’m a newer K3 owner and I’m loving the heck out of the device, but recently I
noticed a strange problem. It started behaving as though my MIC wasn’t working
correctly.
[All tests from this point out will be into a DUMMY LOAD that is rated up to
300W.]
I would notice that
Shane,
I believe the - - display means that the KAT3 is not being properly
recognized as being installed. That fact alone may complicate the
results of your other observations.
You may not be able to TUNE the dummy load to 1:1 SWR - the tuning
mechanism may quit tuning if the SWR is below
The '- -' display usually happens when there is not enough power to
tune and generate a proper SWR.

And this display could be an indication that the K3 is in test mode.
Be sure that the TX indicator is not flashing.

Thank you everyone for your replies. Gary from Elecraft was awesome to
chime in... He had me check a number of things, but I think the core problem
was the wattmeter needed to be calibrated.
Disconnect any RS232 connection and PC software control.
Redo the WMTR menu calibration.
