[Elecraft] K3 Power Rise in WSJT-X Modes

[Bill Wiehe]

I recently noticed when operating in any of WSJT-X modes, such as FT8, the power output on the K3starts out lower than what is initially set then rises to the set power level over the first five to eight seconds of transmitting.The power change is not indicated on radios meter, only my external meter(s).I have checked to see if the same thing occurs in other modes (RTTY, CW, SSB, etc) and it does not. I don't believe it is a K3 issue but I wanted to check and see if perhaps someone else has had a similar experience.Thanks, Bill - W0BBI
