[Elecraft] New KX3 - No SSB output

[kb3ils at comcast.net]

I just worked the Canary Islands on 15M SSB.......I guess it works now! 

Thanks for all the help from everyone. I was worried that despite all the warnings in the manual I had swapped one bolt or stand-off and had something touching and causing an issue. 

I am looking forward to spending some time tomorrow reading through the manual and learning how to really use this thing. The weather today would be awesome here in PA for a portable operation....but it's family and football.

RE: I have the Mic setting at 4 (manual recommends 3-5). 

Page 15 of the manual recommends the MONITOR set to 3-5, not mic gain. It also says "Mic gain for the Elecraft MH3 us typically 15-25." 

I suspect your mic gain if set at 3 to 5 is too low.
