Mike, this s a known issue and I guess you have set BND CHG on the KPA500 to STBY (which I think is safer) . When BND CHG is set to NOR, the K3 returns to 100 W after a band change. But this only occurs when changing bands from the KPA500 whilst K3 initiated band changes are OK. I keep reminding Elecraft of this from time to time and they promised Wayne will solve it as soon as he is done with KX3 firmware etc... In the mean time, I just change bands on the K3 to avoid having to crank up power every time! This is probably why John's K3 "doesn't do that" - he must have it set to NOR, which is the factory default setting.
