[Elecraft] K3 and JT65 (JT9) power instability problem

[Rick Bates]

Hi Doug,

It's better to  use the line in/out on the back of the K3 than the mic.  
Also you will want to use Data A mode.

Once you have made that connection, what I use is Lin Out set at 1 and 
the SLUSB set at noon (delay at zero).

Then adjust your audio DRIVERS (IN and OUT) in the software to max. 
After that is done, adjust the Lin In (mic control in Data mode) to get 
four full ALC LEDs showing with the fifth flickering) with transmit.  
Then leave it alone.

Adjust your power output AFTER going through all that.

As has been stated numerous times, the K3 is not like any other radio in 
this regard (and many others).

73,
