[Elecraft] k3 160 meter low output power

[Nr4c]

Try using a dummy load.  It could be that the radio just can't get a good enough match on 160 to deliver full power.

I have done the calibration with the K3 Utility program, but no change.  Just curious to what might be wrong, or what I could check from him.  Thanks for the replies in advance.
