[Elecraft] K3 ATU Problem

[Rick NK7I]

PS  When using the tuner in the KPA1500 with the K3, it gets the 10 
watts that I have as my default.  I've not tested to see if that can be 
changed to any other value.

I also attempted an ATU tune on the K3 into a dummy load, it's too fast 
for power to be displayed.  ;-)

73,

On my K3, (Tech Mode on, just for clarity):

Config | TUN PWR  is set at 10.0 watts.  If I want it set at another 
level, I turn the main VFO knob to set that level.

I just tested that into a dummy load after setting the output per above 
to 9 watts and got 9 watts out (since reset to my default, 10).

73, Merry Christmas,
Rick NK7I
