K3 2 button questions

[Mike Reublin]

What do the numbers displayed on VFO A (2.1-1) mean when I hold tune?

How do I set the attenuator level?

Thanks,
Mike NF4L

Mike,

The K3 displays the SWR it sees when you hold TUNE.
The attenuator level is fixed.

Thanks, guys.

I'm flabbergasted that the attenuator isn't variable (I'll get over it
quickly). Any body know what it's value is?
