[Elecraft] K3 Firmware 2.58

Wayne, Joe and Julian,

Thank you!  I will change to the 0051.  If I want lower will send 0050.  One
watt increments work for me.  I usually use 2 watts or 75, very little in
between.  I will use my K2 for variations in between if I so choose.  


73,

Bill

K2 #35; KX1 #35; K3 #1744; mini mods

Julian, 

Assuming you are using the K22; extended mode, use 
PC0051; to set 5 Watts (5 Watts, high range).  The 
PC0500; sets to 5.0 Watts in the low range (turns 
off the PA).  

The only downside to using the PC0051; syntax is that 
you can't set the power to other than integral values 
of power (2.0, 3.0, 4.0, etc. Watts).  

73, 

   ... Joe, W4TV
