[Elecraft] Using Low Pwr on K3

I am wanting to know if there are any other adjustments that I need to 
do to be able to run low pwr on my k3?  For example like 1-5 watts?  I 
am wanting to use it in the upcoming QRP contest.  I have a K3 with the 
100 watts option.  When I tune my rig with an external tuner, say 
starting with 30 watts and go down to 2.2 watts on pwr setting on radio, 
it shows abt 6 watts on tuner.  The swr meter on radio does not show 
anything past the 2.2 watts setting, it looks like this --   instead of 
1:1-1.  I have done the 5 watt calibration in the k3 utility.

Thanks
John
