[Elecraft] K3 PA3 not working

[Grant Bright W5XB]

Hello All,

 

Just received a new to me K3. Love all the features and ease of operation!

 

Checking it out this afternoon, transmitting into a good swr, at 12 watts or
less, the output shows 12 watts and 1.2 SWR

 

Turned up to 100 watts, the output shows 1 watt and no swr. Power supply
voltage and current no issue.

 

Question: Does the 10 watt output and the PA3 share the same circuit for
return power (SWR) or are they different?

 

All help appreciated.

 

Please email to w5xb at att.net

 

Many thanks, Grant, W5XB
