ok I'm going to be answering several of your suggestions at once here.
First, when I powered off last night, I used the power button on the K3
itself, I did not kill the power supply first
The sub RX has been turned off and the RX Ant is NOT selected. Ant 1 is
selected and the Antenna IS plugged into the port
The is NO noise shown on the S meter and I have a pretty constant S3 to S5
noise here at my qth.
Regardless of mode selected there is no power output, the display says 0
When I activate the tuner, regardless of band, it shows no SWR, says 5 watts
out, but there is NO POWER OUT of it. It always acts like it is matching, or
sounds like it is.

The K3 can get antennas in a bewildering collection of ways. If
the RX antenna switch is on -- and this was my way of getting on
reception -- it might be your problem. The K3 can also send
received signals out on one of the BNC connectors and expect to
get them back on another.
I recommend a careful reading of the manual, perhaps in PDF form
with a search for "antenna". The manual is downloadable from the
Elecraft web site.
