I hope that this can/will be fixed in a future firmware version for 
those of us using external tuners. I don't think it would be a good idea 
to send 100w to my LDG while it is tuning. In my opinion the K3 should 
follow the same behavior that the K2 does in that it should output at a 
selectable lower power when the tune button is selected even without the 
internal tuner.
