K3 #1823 also has the power output variation mentioned earlier by others.
On 20m CW, while calling VK9DWX (split with KRX3 is working just fine),
I noticed that the output, set to 100w, was varying intermittently
by +/- two 'bars' on the output meter.
I later checked it with a dummy load and external wattmeter,
and got the same results, whether sending CW or holding the key down.
I have not yet tried it into my amp (Acom 1000),
which would yell at me and shut down if overdriven.
I have not yet tried it on SSB.
