Hi Jim, are you seeing these issues with the control cable between the
K3 and the KPA-1500 connected? Are you reading these output numbers on
the K3, the KPA-1500 or an independent power meter?

I have a spontaneous K3 failure after making no changes. This morning
my K3 has only 1 or 2w power output when set to 100w or around 32w
when the KPA1500 is turned on and set to OPER. It's the same on all
bands and with a dummy load. It worked fine last night for several
QSOs. I tried a 5w TX GAIN calibration but it failed with erratic,
varying low power readings. I loaded a previous Configuration file
but that didn't help. Whenever I press TUNE I get the ERR TXG message
after shutting it off. Power in TUNE is set to 50w, but when I hold
TUNE the display flickers between 2 and 8w. Any ideas? Jim W6YA
