K3 and an external transverter

Ross Biggar
My K3 has just come back from being repaired, somehow the main board was water damaged, now I am trying to get
it working again with my 1296 DB6NT transverter.

XV is on ,XV RF is 296, XV IF 28, XVPwr L.2, XVoffset 0 and XV Adr Trn1 , but while I have output from Ant 1on Hf, I dont have any output from the Xvtr plug on the back of the K3.

So what have I missed, I need to have the HF output on 28mhz off and the 28mhz to the transverter turned on.

Help please.

Regards
Ross

Ross,

Hopefully you have figured it out by now, but it sounds like you have
everything correct - I don't know why you have output from the ANT1 RF
output.  I would refer you to page 62 in the Rev D manual -- the menu
for XVn Pwr.  Be certain you deal with the same XVn for all the steps -
each transverter is a separate "band" for the K3.
