Joe, You are not alone. I've noticed the same problem here with my K3's ATU. With the ATU in BYPASS the SWR is low on my 6M yagi. When I turn the ATU on and press the tune button, the K3 finds a dip, but when I transmit, the SWR is much higher than with the ATU turned on. Pressing the tune button a 2nd or 3rd time makes do difference.
As you reported, this does not happen on any of the other HF bands. 73, Rich - K1HTV = = = ----Original Message----- From: Joe Subich, W4TV [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 27, 2011 11:42 AM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: [Elecraft] KAT3 and Six Meters ...

This happens even on the dummy load (1.15:1). It does not happen on any other band. Suggestions? 73, ...
