KX3 SWR indicator

Elecraft mailing list
Oops, pressed enter too soon.

I neglected to mention that the only additional board I have in the KX3
is the antenna tuner, I do not keep batteries in it, and the serial
number is #150, so a rather early model.  I was unable to find anything
in the KX3 manual about the SWR meter, but I recall seeing something
posted on the reflector about it being pretty reliable.

The firmware is up to date (MCU 2.34, DSP 1.33).

I have done a TX gain calibration and the SWR indicator is still reading
as before.
