Ken:
I have a K3S with the internal tuner. I find no issues nor concerns in
running 100 watts in any mode. Page 79 of the manual does not address
any reduced power requirement other than operating with a 20:1 SWR (20
watts).

[Elecraft] Digital mode power handling for KAT3 Message-ID:
<[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="us-ascii" Hello. I recently bought a very nice K3 from a
friend. It has the KAT3 auto-tuner installed. Due to the duty cycle of
most digital modes, most, if not all, external auto tuners are
"de-rated" for digital modes. I haven't been able to find any
reference to this for the KAT3. Does anyone know the power handling
capability of the KAT3 for digital modes? Thanks in advance. 73, Ken, KJ9B
