[Elecraft] TX Gain Calibration Error?

[Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF]

Problem Solved!
I had to do a hard reset of the K3. (Power on whilst holding the NORMAL
button) and then reloaded my saved configuration.
I was then able to go through the whole TX Gain calibration procedure.
Ain't it marvelous what you can do when you read a book! :)
