Emory,
A display of 99.9 SWR normally indicates either a short or an open circuit.
It has to be somewhere between the wattmeter and the dummy load - in
other words, it *has* to be in the ATU to make any sense to me.
It is strange that you see this only below 5 MHz - are the other bands OK?

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
