[Elecraft] [CQ-Contest] K3 Problem

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Jim, better to post this to the Elecraft reflector 
(elecraft at mailman.qth.net)

When you *hold* the Disp/Meter button at upper left, does the display 
switch between SWR/RF and CMP/ALC?

While in the CW mode, it suddenly shows the SSB "configuration" for the meter (CMP  to 10 and 20) and ALF rather than the usual (for CW mode) SWR and Power indicator up to 100W. When I try to key it there is no output but it makes an audible sound that tracks the CW. The only meter indication is up to "40" on the "ALF." side.
