Unfortunately, B->A wasn't fixed - it doesn't copy mode when

Perhaps I'm just being dim, but
I'm afraid it's your browser John. I have Firefox set to clear it's
buffers, cookies, etc. when it closes and it's there on the Elecraft
site now at:

I can't find 2.57 on the beta site (just 2.46). Was it removed, or am I

I have the TxG VCE set to -1.5 db in order to avoid excessive peak SSB

get more carrier power on AM at the expense of excessive SSB power. I
guess it needs the power gain (Tx VCE) setting to be per mode, not SSB

Dave,
I agree with you - there is "something odd going on".
Then, perhaps the power level setting should be renamed to PEP output
instead?
Let us see what Wayne finds out (in due time)
One more early morning on 160 with SSB contest going on it was possible to
work some NA westcoast on CW with an

I checked the calibration at 5 and 50 Watts, the carrier power is close
to the power control setting at other power settings too. Earlier
firmware gives higher power, although still short of the expected 25 -
40 Watt carrier. I have gone back to f/w version 2.46, although that has

not that I am one of those AM guys but just checked my K3 which produces 45W
on 160 and 40W on 80.
Maybe some set up trouble, Dave?

K3 beta-test firmware revision 2.57 (with DSP rev 1.94) is now
available.
This is a major release. Some recent changes have had only limited
testing, but we wanted to get it out in time for this weekend's
contest. If you have any difficulty, you can easily revert back to the
last production v
