Andy,
You did not say what you were using for audio input, and we know it is
not coming from the Microham interface yet.
Do you have your microphone input set correctly? There are 2 inputs -
front and rear. Do you have an electret microphone? If so, you need to
turn bias on. With high output microphones (usually an electret element
of a dynamic mic with a preamp), you can use the Low mic gain range
setting but with low output microphones (like the Heil dynamic HC4/5
element mics) need the High setting. Set the mic gain and compression
level as stated in the manual - 5 to 7 bars of ALC showing on peaks and
compression to suit you. Use TX Test mode to set it up and listen to
your voice in the monitor to judge how much compression is good for you.
Of course, there will be no power output in SSB without any audio input.

Hello to the group.
K3 01684 'factory built' was delivered last week, and I've only found time
to power it up today... It's a K3/10 with the KXV3.
I'm stuck on getting power out on SSB. It took a little while to figure out
the CW section, and that now works fine. I've gone over the manual a few
times but I must be missing something and I'll bet it's something stupid...
But I can't see what it is...
Also, looking at the power out options, I have an adjustable 0-12w on HF,
but only 0-8w on 6m... Is that right? I could have done with 10w on 6m.....
I've yet to connect up my microham interface, I'm hopeful it'll work without
problem...
Advice about the power issue would be appreciated..
Thanks.
