I am just getting back into enjoying my K3 #328 after a hospital stay, and
am confused by one aspect of the output power measurement. I suspect the
problem lies with me rather than the radio, but I feel it is worth asking
the question.

Suppose I set the power output using the PWR control at 30W. When I hold
TUNE both the radio and the external power meter indicate an output of near
enough 30W. However, if I transmit in PSK or RTTY both the radio and the
external power meter indicate around 10W. In particular, I seem to be unable
to get more than around 50W output in PSK or RTTY. I am fairly sure that I
was able to obtain a full 120W in these modes when I first used the K3. The
only change is that I have recently upgraded to the latest versions of the
firmware and DSP, without any apparent problems. I would be most grateful
for any advice.
