[Elecraft] K3 - Issue/Oddity

This morning, I turned on my K3 for the first time in two months.  Everything is OK, until I transmit (checking the SWR on my beam)

My two inline watt meters say the match is 1.2 to one.  The K3 thinks it is 3.3 to 1 with or without the tuner.  The tuner does click and clack to match the (?) what ever it is matching...but the K3 always reports 3.3 to 1.

So....what am I missing here ....or what is your opinion?

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?

Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind. -  John W. (Kansas)
