I had the same trouble with mine, apparently due to the path from my K3 to the dummy load which is sort of long, going through a few other pieces of equipment. When I connected another dummy load to the K3 output cable ahead of the other equipment it solved the problem. The second dummy load was a Bird Termaline.
