K3/100

I just installed the KPA3 and am experiencing ERR TXG in several of the
lower bands.  The Owners manual refers you to the Service Manual.
Can't seem to find anything on the Elecraft site about a Service Manual.
Any assistance appreciated.

Have you run the TX Gain calibration for high power since you installed
the KPA3?  I recommend running it through the K3 utility.  You need to
run it on all bands.  How to do so is outlined in the manual or made
very easy by using the configuration program.

Just run the Transmitter Gain calibration for 5W and 50W using the K3
utility program, or manually as set forth in the Owner's Manual, p49.
This solves most TXG problems.
