[Elecraft] [K3] KXV3A fails 1 mW calibration

[Robert Bajuk]

I do have the same problem with TX Gain Calibration, 5w and 50w calibration
goes well, but 1mW calibration fails, I am getting the error something
like: "Power set to 0.1 mW, 1.9 MHz,  TX gain calibration failed because
transmit power did not reach the expected value".

I did reload FW, EE INIT, settings restore, nothing helps.

KXV3A is enabled and set to normal in config, no jumpers on W1 and W2, 50
Ohm dummy load on XVTR Out is OK. XV144 does not work properly, I believe
that is connected with XVTR Out problems. XVTR parameters in config are set
correctly.

Any ideas?
