Thank everyone for you suggestions. Here is what I found and did to fix it. I disassembled my station and then started connecting one thing at a time until I found the problem. It turned out that my Signalink USB sound card was what was picking up the feed back and introducing it back into the K3. I put ferrite beads on everything and also did the aluminum tape mod on the signalink. All is well now. I can run full power with no problems. Thanks again Gerald
