[Elecraft] K3 SWR Consistent - Low or High Power

[N4OI - Ken]

Well, my K3/100 and P3 are now a whole week old!  Had a great time assembling
and now having a blast getting to know them -- the P3 and the CW autospot
and APF features are favorites so far.  

*One observation:* I use low power to set SWR with my TenTec manual tuner.
My FT-920's SWR meter would usually shift a bit when I increased power to
100w and I would then quickly tweak it back down.  With the K3's SWR meter
(no ATU installed), after setting the tuner at 10w or so, the reading stays
the same when power is increased to 100w. 

I assume there is a difference in the K3's SWR sensing circuit that makes it
more consistent regardless of power out, but just wanted to see if this
observation makes sense.    Thanks in advance!
