Don has pegged the usual cause of "power creep". I had a bit
of that when I first set up my K3 for using WSJT programs back in
2010 when my radio was new.
But the radio does not like you adjusting the power knob if it is
transmitting under software. Wait till its in receive mode then you

I bet each one of you that has this problem has one defective output power
transistor. The remaining transistor can reach full power but it takes a
while. Talk to Elecraft service and ask them if they think that is your

Talk to Elecraft service and ask them if they think that is your problem and if
it is then make arrangements to get it fixed.

One of the causes for that "power creep" when using soundcard data modes
(DATA A or AFSK A) is insufficient audio to the K3. The audio level
must be adjusted to produce 4 bars solid with the 5th bar flashing on
the ALC meter.
For voice modes, a similar situation may exist, and with compressio
Hi all,
I have the same problem. Anytime I change something, like band, power or a
number of other things, power starts up ridiculously low and creeps *very*
slowly up to the 100W mark. Even without changing anything the actual peak
power on a transmission can be anywhere between 80 and 120W as in
I had the same problem, plus my output on 160 and 80 was low.
I just had the radio back for warranty service, and they turned it around in
just a few days. I was very pleased.
