Hi, With latest (MCU 1.88 / DSP 1.70) FW (and also versions sbefore) I have the following strange behavior in transverter operation:
K3 SN 533 Using an XV144, set up as XVTR1, 1mW drive power. Tune PWR is set to fixed 5.0 (Config Menu) When I switch to the transverter band and do TAP TUNE, a carrier with the nominal power (1mW Out on K3) is sent. After terminating the TUNE operation, the power settings get messed up, usually the current power setting is dropped to 0.00 mW (seen by double tapping the PWR control). Giving some movement to the knob, has the power setting jump back to the configured value (in XVTR settings) of 1.00mW. This is reproducable, the easiest way is to do issue a TAP TUNE twice and observe the outgoing power and power setting of the K3. Note: This seems to happen *only* if tuning power is set to a fixed value in the Config Menu, and not if Tune Power is set to "use current power level for TUNE". Anyone can confirm this?
