Troy,
I'd first check the MIC SELection (front or rear or line in) to be sure
it is correct for your setup, then MIC BIAS to be sure it is on or off
as required by your microphone.
Then set the MIC GAIN for 4-5 bars of ALC. If you are getting this but
no transmit power, contact support. If you are not getting 4-5 bars of
ALC and the selection and bias are correct, check your microphone and/or
try the other mic jack (front or rear as appropriate). A common
"computer headeset" can usually be used with the rear panel mic jack,
and normally will require bias to be on.

Lyle
> My K3 wont transmit on SSB. It would when first purchased (recently, assembled, used from friend). I’ve been using it on CW but wanted to check into a SSB net. I’m very new at using the K3 so hoping for op err. Been through the manual and settings and can’t figure it out. An external PEP wattmeter shows an occasional 1-2 watt jump at first keying the XMIT then nothing. Still works fine on CW. Any guidance would be appreciated.
