Scott,

Get a good dummy load capable of 50 watts up through 6 meters and use K3 
Utility to run the TX Gain Calibration routine on that K3 (without the 
amplifier connected)  That may straighten out the other bands - it is at 
least worth a try and will be the first thing support will ask you to do.
