10 W power out with KPA3 Normal

[w0uo]

My K-3 is only putting out 10 watts.  KPA3 showed in Bypass. I placed it
normal, still only 10 watts out.  The circuit breaker appears to be in, that
is it does not appear to change positions when I push it. Suggestions?

Rerun your 5W calibration.
Then set your K3's power less than 12 watts.
Set the K3 for 160 meters.
Now go into Config and find TXGN LP
Write down the value.
Now press band up.
Write down the value
Lather rinse repeat.... (get the gain value for all of the bands in your K3)

Then reply to this message (including on the reflector) with the
values that you get...
