I reviewed the data published by Rob Sherwood. It would be of interest to
see test data on the same K3 with the old and the new synth boards. I
suspect that other ongoing improvements to the K3 have influenced some of
the measurements.

I am getting 0 RF output from my K3 on all bands regardless of the commanded
power level. Pressing the TX button results in -- where the SWR would
normally be displayed.
Any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this issue are greatly
