K3 ATU handles 10:1 SWR through 100W

Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ

We have just made a correction to our K3 FAQ.

It incorrectly stated that the K3's ATU would roll back power at 100W
above a 2:1 SWR. That actually is the SWR where the K3 will roll back
power when the ATU is -bypassed-.

With the KAT3 internal ATU in-line, the K3 can handle a 10:1 SWR at
100W. (Similar to the KAT100 on the K2.)

This may also have been the source of some confusion at our K3 Q&A at FDIM.

Sorry for the mix up!
