Doug,
It may be as simple as increasing the audio drive.
The K3 power control works differently than other transceivers, and the
audio must be sufficient for the K3 to properly set the power output
level. Do not attempt to adjust the audio in an effort to control power
- use the power knob to set your desired power level.
You must drive the audio enough to produce 4 bars with the 5th
flickering on the ALC meter.
That *is* the no-ALC point - the 1st 4 bars of that meter are there only
to indicate the audio level.
You can set the audio level without transmitting by turning on TX TEST.

I set my Mic gain to 30-32 to get in the right range. I use an external
