K3 SWR & S meter not functioning

Gary Smith-2
I am working the Stew Perry test and noticed my indicator for SWR & S
meter stopped not working and that is the same on all bands. If I
adjust the RF control I can see the level indicated but there is no
sign of Rf life. I turned off the radio & back on but this persists.
Is there something I may have bumped to have stopped the display from
indicating any values?

Thanks

Sounds like you may have turned off the AGC - assuming you are hearing signals but just seeing no meter movement.
