Agreed. If you have a bad enough match, and it isn't choked, you can
certainly get enough RF in the shack to cause havoc.
I have some bands I can't use my trackpad *inside my laptop* during
full-power ft8 transmit, because I haven't set up proper antennas for that
band.

David,
As someone else suggested, it sounds a lot like RF feedback on 17m.
Try operating into a dummy load to see if the same thing happens - if
not, get out the ferrites.

Sounds like you have RF getting in somewhere. Given that the PC sometimes
loses it’s mind, I’d look there first. Do you have ferrites on the various
connections going to the PC?

Here are more details:
All seems to be working fine on 160m-10m except for 17m, so KX3 VFO is
at 18.100 for the rest of this discussion.
Without WSJT-X running, ATU finds a 1.1 match and TUNE button on KX3
works as expected.
With WSJT-X running, using the WSJT-X TUNE button causes the

Go to Don’s web page, W3FPR.com, and you’ll see a list of links on the left
side of the page. Last I looked, the data paper was at the bottom of the list.
Don, IMO, is an Elecraft treasure!

David,
It is a mystery why the computer reports that message only on 17 meters.
There should be no band dependency for the USB connection.

I am finally getting around to setting my KX3 Up for FT-8 and have watched
several YouTube videos on setting up the KX3 and read Don Wilhelm’s excellent
paper on setting up Elecraft radios for digital modes (Tnx, Don).
My hang up is the radio settings tab in WSJT-X: baud rate, data bits, stop
