Yes, the full scale is adjustable to 200 w, 700w, 1200w, and 2000w.. Maybe a 
future firmware update will include an Auto option that will select whatever 
power level it sees like most power meters have. I have mine set to 2000w 
because I run a Command tech amp  on 6m, but when I’m running the K3 by itself, 
the bar display is very low.. However, the digital readout indicates the 
correct power.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] P3 TX mon

 

Interesting. I wondered how this worked. My P3TXMON was shipped this week so 
ill get to play with it soon, but one would think the scale would be adjustable 
so that whatever power is seen, you could make that the full scale. This is 
just a scaling issue. Otherwise running the KPA500 with the 2000 watt sensor 
will only use one-quarter of the scale. Obviously the digital display still 
works right because no scaling is involved.

Received the P3 TXMON option yesterday.. Took about 10 minutes to install
and works flawless.. THANKS Elecraft..!!



The only drawback I see is the lack of the option to set full scale at 1500
watts and not 2000 watts..  Just a personal preference But all is good..
