FW: K3s Wattmeter

efortner
I have had a glitch in my software and trying to reconfiger my K3s. The tx
filters got switched in the software some how. I now have the filters sorted
out but doing the wattmeter calibration and cannot get Config WMTR LP to
change to

WMTR HP. The power control will not go past 12 watts. The auto calibration
works fine on 5 watts but when finished next takes me to the 1 milliwatt cal
instead of 50 watts. Following directions to set power to 50 watts does not
work.

Any suggestions. I really do not want to send it back to Elecraft if I can
get it going. I have the latest firmware.

73, Earl K4KAY

Check to see that the KPA3 menu item is set to PA NOR. Given that other
config items got changed, this one could be in bypass or some other setting.

Make sure the KPA3A is enabled in the CONFIG menu.
