Hi Randy,
It sounds like you need to do a transmitter gain calibration. See page
49 in the manual in the Calibration section.
The procedure in the manual will work fine but the K3 Utility automates
the process to the point of being fool-proof.

Bill,
Does this occur on a dummy load?
Tell the K3 to monitor the supply voltage and check what happens when you
transmit.
Do you have a new antenna, or has the possibility of RF feedback increased?

Hi Bill,
Have you set the power to 30 watts and then switched to another band? Power
levels are saved on a per band basis if you have set CONFIG:PWR SET to PER
BAND.
Are you running some PC software that could be sending power level data to
the K3?
Are you connected to a KPA500 amplfier where
How do you tell the K3 to monitor the supply voltage? I checked the
owner's manual under voltage and meter - nothing there. Same for the
Cady manual.
Thanks,

Hi Bill,
Very simple. See page 36 of the manual under VFO B Alternate Displays. Here
are the two steps required.
1. Press the DISP button
2. Rotate VFO B knob until the voltage is display on the bottom display
Press the DISP button again when you want to go back to monitoring VFO B
frequency.
