K3 CW power higher than tune power pse help

Klaus Koppendorfer
Since few weeks i saw that k3 power goes up more than 100 watts
So I did new wmtr-hp calibration compare with my LP100A
The value for wmtr-hp has to set up to 160  for 50 Watts cal with "tune"
When I use cw the  power goes from 50 watts up to 65 watts
I can read this power difference with lp100a on k3 rf-bars and also on kpa500 power-leds

Has anyone an idea what could have gone wrong in my k3
What can I measure inside on swr-bridge ??

Newbe question.

Urb LeJeune
Hi

I have a 100 Watt K3. When I adjust the PWR know it only goes up to 12.0 watts.
How do I activate the 100 watts? I know I'm overlooking a setting
somewhere but
I'll be darned if I can find it.

Thanks

Hi Urb,

Probably CONFIG -> PA is set to BYPass.  Change it to NORmal and you'll
have your PA inline!
