[Elecraft] RF in Microphone

[Dave Hachadorian]

What happens if you transmit 100 watts into a dummy load?

Some progress but some new questions. When transmitting at 12 
Watts without
the KPA3 engaged, the transmit audio is completely fine. But, 
once I go to
13 Watts and hear the KPA3 relay engage, the audio distortion is 
back. I'm
beginning to think I have a CONF setting incorrect or the KPA3 is 
bad. Even
with 12 W driving the KPA500, no audio distortion.
The K3S has the KPA3 module but does not have the KAT3 since I'm 
using the
KAP500.

I have CONF:KPA3 set to PA NOR. Am I missing another menu setting 
somewhere?

Jim
