Hi Brian, The problem you described after band changes or power level changes is ABSOLUTELY a function of the TX gain setting. But the automatic setup through the K3 utility might not solve the problem for you. In that case you have to do a manual adjust. I had to do this on two bands for my amplifier.
You can review the manual setting procedure at the top of page 62 in the K3 manual in the CONFIG:TXGN area of the configuration summary. You have to first turn off CONFIG:TX ALC before you can make the manual adjustment. Don't forget to turn it back on. 73, Mike K2MK alsopb wrote > > Guys, > > I may be imagining things, but this effect seems to always be there with > my K3.
