[Elecraft] K3 - Power Calibration

[Dick Dievendorff]

The calibration should be fine on the rest of the bands.  

It's a good thing that the last band calibrated is the one you had problems
with!

I downloaded K3 Utility 1.2.1.6 and beta FW 2.78 and ran the TX Power 
Calibration.  Really slick!  On the 5W calibration, I got the message 
that the SWR was too high [2.5:1] from my dummy load [part of my MFJ 
antenna tuner] on 6m.  The 50W run went just fine.  K3 works fine, 
although I don't have a 6m antenna so I haven't tried it out there.

Since I'm not on 6 right now, and no plans to get on, is my calibration 
good on the rest of the bands or do I need to find a better 6m load?

The power on banner is kinda cool :-)
