Hello FM,
I had to reprogram my K3 after power failure when I was updating firmware.
I managed to reprogram all except the power of my XV-144 transverter.
The transverter output power is +- 10 watt but I cannot turn it down to
example 1 watt, in fact I cannot change the power setting.

It took me a year to locate the noise source similar to yours. It is
worse on 80m and the frequency shifts as picture content changes. It
