I have not yet determined the exact series of events, but something strange
happens to both of my K3s. This weekend I have been participating in the
Texas QSO Party. As it is both a CW and SSB event and multi-band I am doing
jumps from band to band and mode to mode. Many times I get to the
destination freq/mode and I have ZERO output power displayed on the K3 power
meter and very low output on my station watt meters. It appears to be less
than 1 watt.
The fix is quite simple. Put the, then failing, K3 into TUNE position. The
power comes up - switch it out of tune - go on my way at the desired power
level. This happens when going from SSB to CW, CW to SSB, and Band to Band.
After the event I will try to get more info as to what key sequence gets
them there, but I would assume I am not alone here as both of my K3s are
acting the same.
I am running 2.38 / 1.90 firmware.
