This is my second post on this problem, got no replies on first one, still 
looking for help for transmitting below 5 Mhz and getting very high SWR.
I also connected a dummy load directly to the KX3, same problem.
Using the tune button and by-passing the ATU get SWR readings of 99.9 with 
dummy load on freqs below 5 Mhz?
So it probably is not the ATU.
When installing the 2 meter module I had to move the inductors, the 2 mtr 
antenna connector was touching one inductor, fit was very tight.  
I have rechecked 2 meter module install nothing obvious.
Thanks for help.  73

Subject: KX3 2 mtr ATU problem

I installed the KX3 2 meter module about a week ago, it all seemed to go ok.
The module seems to work fine but now the ATU in the KX3 will not tune up on 80 
or 160.
Best SWR KX3 shows is  about 10-1 on freqs I have used many times before where 
ATU used to get near 1.1. 
I used same cables, antenna, with different tuner and HF rig, two different 
antennas, tune up fine as before.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.  73  and Thanks
