I wonder since this is a "software detected" mod at setup if the firmware program could report it is there. (alternatively, maybe the K3 can report it like it does key err) I'm not keen on zapping the front end with a high signal level from an uncalibrated source to find out if it is working.

There perhaps may be other mods that could be detected in software and reported as well.

How does one test this without a calibrated signal source?

Why was 80M chosen for the test frequency? Most ops have preamp off and many have attenuation in.

It appears one needs something like an 80db over S9 sig for it to cut in.
