FW: New KX3 ATU Not Working

Help,

I just got my new KX3 today, set it up and everything worked all day,
including the ATU. I shut the radio down, put it away and went out. Got
back this evening, set the radio up and turned it on. Tried to use the ATU
and I get the message NO ATU. In the menu it says no ATU installed. I
tried a Parameter Initialization and that did not help. Any ideas as to
what could be wrong? And is there a more in depth reset?

Thanks,

Randy Moore

Randy,

Parameter Initialization will set all menu parameters to the defaults.
The default for ATU MD is "Not Inst".

Go to the ATU MD menu and set it to either BYP or AUTO.

Thanks, but the PA.MODE MENU was turned on the MENU. I turned it off and
now everything works.

The only downsides of the great KX3 and K3 are all
the menu entries to get right :-)
