[Elecraft] K3 SWR error

[NZ0T]

I have K3-100 kit 1502 with the internal tuner and FW 3.76.  I know there
have been many posts about the meter SWR error but I really haven't seen a
resolution posted.  Before I bought my W2 I used a cheap SWR/Power meter and
I thought the error was in it.  Now that I have the W2 (which appears to be
very accurate) I see that the K3 SWR indication can be very different than
my W2, Ten Tec tuner, analyzer and my other HF rigs with or without the
internal tuner in line.  My concern is that if the K3 reads SWR incorrectly
that the power may not fold back and there may be a risk of damage to the
finals.  Is there any procedure to correct the error?  I understand that
stray capacitance can cause differences but I would really like to have a
more accurate measurement by the rig.
