Thanks to K2AV, I solved my problem with calibrating my K3 TX output. The  
problem I was having was due to two things: first, I was using the owner's  
manual from August 2008 (when I got the rig)...the latest online version is  
quite different when it comes to TX calibration, and second, I found that 
the  length of coax between the K3 and the pickup made a BIG difference as 
the  frequency increased...changing to a 1-foot length made the difference! 
>From the  pickup to the dummy load, it's only a 1-foot length of RG-214. 
 
The help was appreciated. Quite an exercise in frustration!
 
Happy Holidays to all,
 
Bert, N4CW
