K3 Transmitter Gain Calibration Problem

Joseph M. Durnal
I'm building the K3 and getting near the end (hopefully).  When I
follow the transmitter gain procedures, it displays ERR TXF over VFO
B.  The watt meter showed that it was putting out 5 watts, but the
error message worries me.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Joe

Did you look up the ERR TXF on the error listing in the manual?  Make sure
you've properly set up the filter parameters in the CONFIG menu, especially
the transmit filter which must be a 2.7 or 2.8 kHz filter.
