K3 WATTMETER ADJ

[Tony Scesny]

   K3  v2.23  Wattmeter adjustment doesn't  follow the manual.   I'm
wondering if I missed something and maybe someone can help me out with
this one.    I tried to re-check the wattmeter calibration that I
skipped over during the build #703 and I'm set up on page 47 of the new
manual Rev D1 7/27/08 on 20 mtrs with CONFIG: WMTR   LP   070   and have
the power control set at 5.0 watts.   When I press TUNE  it shows  10.0
watts and the power out is indeed 10.0 watts according to my
wattmeter.     Using the same procedure at 50 watts the  CONFIG: WMTR  
HP  100   and the power control set to 50.0 watts,  the TUNE shows  
AGAIN  10.0  watts and is 10.0 watts.

     I  looked at errata sheet and there is no changes.  Could this be a
TYPO.    WHAT AM I MISSING??   TNX

Tony,

Do you have TUN PWR set for 10W instead of NOR?  If so, no matter what you set PWR
at, TUN will process at 10W (or whatever you have TUN PWR set to).
