Mine does that too. What works for me is to tweak the mic gain up and then
back to the same level and it starts working normally. Seems to me like
there is a firmware bug with the radio that hasn't been figured out and
addressed yet.

Unfortunately, this did not fix my particular KX2. TX Gain calibration was
completed successfully, but the same issue persists.
I also did the TX bias calibration, and noted that bis on Q6 took ~45 seconds
to complete, vs the 3-10 the manual suggested. Q7 was fast. Q6 wavered a lot
between
Mine did the same thing. Did the TX gain calibration & that fixed it.

Nate,
A couple more questions:
Does the KX2 do the same thing on CW?
Did Elecraft say anything about doing a TX gain calibration? This can be done
with the KX2 utility although I haven’t done it on mine, just on my K3. It sets
the per-band gain coefficients Be sure to save the current CONFIG
I have replicated this behavior both with the internal as well as the MH3
external mic. Of course set at different mic gain levels, always per the manual
which as you said suggests 5 bars of ALC. I have tried lower and higher mic
gain settings just for fun, with the same results.
I don’t
The KX2 uses a control loop to set power. Make sure you have sufficient audio
drive to energize the loop. Using the ALC display set the MIC GAIN so you have
5-7 bars on voice peaks, per the manual.
What MIC are you using? Have you tried the internal MIC?
GL & 73,

I have that problem to.
My solution is to wind the power back from 10w to anything less and then back
to 10w.

Hello! I recently purchased a KX2 (#757) from a friendly member of this list.
I have a local 10m meetup I attend frequently, and I noticed a strange behavior
that I'm now able to replicate. When I first switch to 10m, I have extremely
low output power (one bar on the RF meter), even when set
