I never watch SWR in SSB, but CMP and ALC. 73, Phil W7OX

I have noticed the same thing on my KX3 as well. Can you redo the 1-2-1-2 test with FM? You did the SSB test only with 1-2-1-2 but the FM test with XMIT full power and no variation in power with speech.

Firstly thanks to everyone for your input on potential causes of SWR reading instability with my KX3. Since there were so many possibilities (antenna, heating, radio, etc.) I knew I needed to go back to basics and initially test the radio with a dummy load on the bench. Well, I managed to recreate the issue and have documented my findings in a short 4 min video,http://youtu.be/cwxk4E01IfM In short the problem appears to be associated with the KX3 reporting of SWR in SSB mode. My radio is configured as follows: uC 01.79, dSP 01.27. As this issue has only recently developed (last month or so), and while I can't be 100% sure, I think it may have occurred after I upgraded to this firmware version. I'll be contacting the folks at Elecraft to get their opinion on this. 73's Gary K6YOA
