If you have the ATU, it can be fooled into thinking you have a
bad match by AM broadcast stations nearby. If you have a nearby
broadcast transmitter, a band reject filter is one solution.

I was running some stations on 160-meters this morning, and
noted that the power output had dropped from the amp.
Further investigation found that the maximum power out from the
K3/100 was reduced from ~100W to about 54W, with no error
messages displayed on the K3. Advancing the 'PWR' control
beyond 54 W made no difference. I stopped operating, and found
that the power slowly restored, first to a maximum of 84W, and
then back to the normal 100W maximum.
I assume that this is an issue with temperature? The ambient
temperature was cool (A/C running in shack). I have not noted
this problem before.
The fan was set to 'Config > KPA3 > PA nor'. recommended setting for hard
contest use?
