[Elecraft] K3 Transverting

[Ian J Maude]

Hi all,
Having done the upgrade this morning I thought I would test via my XV144 
on FM.  It would appear that the transverter is shutting down for some 
reason after a short over.  I have to change bands back and forward 
again to switch the transverter back on.  My initial thought is heat but 
touching the area of the transverter PA, it is pleasantly warm but 
certainly not hot.  I have tried altering the XVn PWR setting to L0.5mW 
but the same thing happens.  It would also appear that I cannot vary the 
power output using the PWR control on the K3.  The menu info in the 
manual says I can but not how to do it.

Any ideas please as the transverter works really well otherwise and I 
get good audio reports through the repeater.
