UPDATE: Just to complete this for anyone searching this problem.... Elecraft support did respond. I had sent the msg to supp...@elecraft.com and not the correct address which is k3supp...@elecraft.com. The test was to disconnect the remove the ATU board and connect the RF board directly to the antenna port - which worked OK - 1.2:1. With ATU installed and auto-tuned, I get 10 watts delivered to the load, so in my case the bypass VSWR is little high, but not really a concern. Since the ATU *is* installed, just tune it and everything works fine.
