culprit was my big palstar auto tuner while off , was NOT in bypass.

bands are easier to use than the low

I have used this combination successfully. Worked great if a efficent
antenna is used on 20 meters. Have now moved the combination to a go box,
capable of Pactor, with more digital modes to come.

To your second point, nothing. I had my KXPA100 in my basement for a few
years, directly beneath my operating position. It worked great, after a bit
of hacking to get the serial port accessible to the computer upstairs, for
CAT control.

I have been thinking about installing an HF mobile rig. One idea that
appeals to me is a KX3/KXPA100 setup, where the radio is can be placed
and hooked-up in (passenger side) glove box, and the amp is more
permanently installed under a back seat.
I have two questions:
1) If you have tried this,

I’ve found that one should use a 12” to 18” jumper of known good condition and
quality. Use this jumper to connect the dummy load direct to the radio. No
switches, and no tuners in bypass mode.
The dummy load should be 50 ohms +/- 5 (thats 10%) ohms and be resistive.

Thanks for the information. I did not have a tuner in this K3S when it failed
the 6M cal so I figured it was just marginal for some reason since it DID pass
on the third try. I have read the Config menu now and see how to check the gain
and do a manual cal if necessary.

Several responded and it was a couple of things. First was that the main IC
wasn't seated completely. I removed it, checked the pins and straightened them
a bit. That apparently brought the LED's back to life so when I powered up I
could see them initialize. Then I went to the menu and turned

I recently purchased a K1 and found that the LED's for the RIT and ATTN
don't function correctly. When I turn on the rig the LED's cycle
correctly then go out. When I push either of the buttons and turn the
RIT or ATTN on, neither of the lights come on.
