[Elecraft] SSB problem--again!

Hi Troy,

Questions:

1. Are you in SPLIT mode by any chance, with VFO B set to some mode other than SSB?

2. Do you have mic gain adjusted to the point of seeing 5 bars of ALC on the meter on voice peaks?

3. Do you have the SSB crystal filter's labeled offset entered in the CONFIG:FLn OFS menu entry?

4. If you set CONFIG:2-TONE to ON, exit the menu, and tap XMIT, do you see power output? (Turn it back off afterwards.)

5. Are there any error messages when you power-up the K3?

The answers to the above might help us figure out what's going on.

73.
