This is not a factor in synthesizer switching. Both the old and new synths incorporate their own voltage regulators, preserve identical signal integrity down to a power supply voltage of around 9 VDC. That's about as low as the radio can go in any case. Wayne N6KR On Jan 19, 2017, at 2:11

Hi, My remarks to bulleted items below: 1) Sounds good. 2) Where are these voltages measured? If they are measured outside the K3 with an accurate DVM, I would say they are marginal. If so, raise the key up voltage to 14.2V. If they are measured by the K3S' internal voltmeter they might be OK.

Yup, that was me. There were some good suggestions made here and I’ve checked them all and I’m unable to get the K3S to chirp. So, at present: unable to replicate.. Some of the suggested things I’ve checked: 1) SWR at the K3S while driving the ACOM 1500 (same operating conditions) is 1.05 to
