[Elecraft] K3 question -- Transmitting (SSB) with power set to 0.0 watts -- any risk?

[Mitch Mitchell]

Hello,

 

I am chasing down a noise source that I hear when transmitting voice and data modes on my K3.   I trying some experiments to nail down the source, but while doing so I need to leave the K3 on transmit for a (relatively) extended period so I can hear any changes in the characteristics of the noise as I turn circuits on and off In the house.    Will transmitting SSB with power set to zero for say 10 or 20 minutes cause any problems for the K3?

 

Thanks!
