For follow-up - Problem ok now.
I moved the internal antenna cable and KX3 is working fine now.
This time I was very careful when putting the case back on. I think the
case moved the antenna cable out of position as shown on page 27, figure 21
of 2 mtr module instructions. Once antenna cable was not touching or over
the toroidal inductor no problems with SWR.
Thanks Jeff for the tip and all others who responded. 73

I saw your post but I thought someone better qualified would respond.
I had a similar problem.
I went back into the unit to find the antenna cable had shifted and was
right over the top of one of the atu toroids.
see fig 23 in the assy manual.
i set it back to pointing direct to the card edge, closed it up re-tested
and was back in business.
