KX3 no longer shows SWR/RF

Help. Not sure what happened but my display no longer displays SWR/ RF, it
displays CMP. ALC

Taping the mic gain cq speed does not toggle it?

If I switch modes to CW or DATA , then SWR/RF Will display.

Goes away on USB/LSB voice mode

No, The CMP button just togles CMP and VFO-B display at screen base.

The correct method is to depress (click) the Keyer/Mic knob as a switch
as displayed here ;

In reply to this post by Bill Frantz

As a followup the CMP bttn will toggle to CMP/ALC display for the
purpose of adjusting CMP,

as is the purpose of pressing CMP. However the CMP/ALC display cannot be
maintained and return to

normal VFO-B display in this procedure.
