No Output Power on K3

[Bob Wehking]

I purchased my K3 when they first came out & I remember that it would
putout RF. I've been away from the hobby for a while & I can't get any
RF out. When in CW mode, when I key the radio, I hear a tone, the TX led
does not come on & I can adjust the power knob & very the setting past
100 watts. There is no indication of power on the digital readout or a
wattmeter connected to the rig. It must be some setting?

And that you're not in TEST mode. The TX between the A and B will blink
if you are.
