Mine is set to the default, 5.0.
FWIW, the microcode is version 05.10
D1 is 02.83
D2 is 00.00 only one receiver
FL is 01.17
dr is 00.00 no DVR
When I checked the versions, the utility found newer software. I
tried hitting the repeater with microcode 05.14 and FL 1.19, but
it still fails. There is still that raspy note when listening to
the K3 transmit frequency. The frequency is higher than my 600
Hz CW tone. (Note that I am running the KX3 without an antenna
and it is showing about S7 signal strength.)

I think there is a setting in the config menu for FM deviation. Maybe it is

</div>I've been trying to get my K3 to hit the WVARA repeater
on 6M. The repeater is about 2 miles from the house, so power
isn't an issue. I can hit it with my KX3 and the IC-706etc in
my car. I can also use the K3 with the 2M internal transverter
to reach 2M repeaters.
I have the K3 in FM T mode, and when I hold PITCH on the K3, I
get 151.4 in the VFO-A display and PL TONE in the VFO-B display
which I think shows that the K3 should be sending the tone.
(Also when I PTT on the microphone, the K3 displays the correct
repeater input frequency in VFO-A.)
When I use the KX3, the K3 can clearly hear when the KX3 is
sending the 151.4 Hz CTCSS tone and when it is not. Using the
KX3 to listen to the K3, I can not hear the K3 sending the
tone. I do hear a loud raspy note. quite unlike the tone I hear
when the KX3 is the transmitter. This raspy note does not go
away when I turn tone off after holding PITCH on the K3.
Does anyone have any ideas?
