[Elecraft] K3 TUNE function

[Don Wilhelm]

Geoff,

I believe the key to your question is found in the menu explanation for 
the TXGN menu entry.
 From that description, I conclude that the "magic" is in having the 
power setting at 5, 50 or 1.0 mW.  The gain constant is only updated 
when Tune function is activated and one of those 3 power levels is set.  
At other power levels, the gain constant is not updated.
