The transmit sensor in the P3 TX monitor trips at only a few tenths of a watt (a few watts with the 2 kW coupler). It was made sensitive so it would work with QRP.

The radio with the TX Mon is on 6 meters only. The HF antennas are about 200

Above the six meter antenna.. Thought that would be adequate.

This never happens on the Power Master meter or on the LP-100.. Only the TX Mon.

Almost certainly "inter station coupling" particularly if the two antennas were 
close together and/or the (two radio) antenna switch lacks sufficient isolation.

Sorry, I did not answer your question..

Yes, the VSWR is showing high and all reflected..

As N1AL indicated, the TX MON goes to maximum gain at low signal levels.
You're probably seeing inter station coupling - hopefully at low levels.

Is the SWR very high - all "reflected"?

I have two K3's and two P3's but only one has the TX Mon option..
When I transmit with the K3 that does NOT have the TX Mon installed,
the P3 that does have it reacts showing VSWR and one sweep of the
transmit
envelope..
This seems very strange.. The only thing in common between the two is
the MicroHam router program..  Suggestions..??
