Help me out here ... if I go into TEST mode and send something, my K3 is
really making RF, albeit not much?
As I accumulate birthdays, I find that, while my copy skill stays fairly
constant, my "fine motor skills" are declining, and I don't get enough
sending practice on the air. I've been getting the exercise in TEST
mode, sometimes with the KPA500 in OPERATE and an antenna connected on
the belief that the manual was correct and I wasn't making any RF. So
far, I don't think I've sent any state secrets, credit card numbers, or
other private information ... maybe I should put the dummy load on?

Yes, the lowest transverter IF is 7-MHz. Of course you can operate the
K3 in low power transceive on any frequency from 490-KHz to 32-MHz if in
the TEST mode.
