YET ANOTHER (VERY) HELPFUL FIELD DAY FEATURE

Tom Hammond-2
Folks:

In order to prevent 'knob twiddling' by unfamiliar ops who like to
'twiddle' knobs
of your rig, especially in order to get an INDICATED 100W OUTPUT IN
SSB MODE ON AN EXTERNAL (AVERAGING) POWER METER...

The K3 offers a feature to LOCK the MIC GAIN, COMPRESSION, and POWER
OUTPUT controls
so an uninitiated user can't 'crank up the gain' to be 'louder' (and
much more distorted) on the other end...

Go to CONFIG | PWR SET  and press [1] to lock/UNlock MIC GAIN,
COMPRESSION and POWER
level controls once they've been 'CORRECTLY' set by the owner!

Works just GREAT!  We used it last year and it SAVED us from several
'poor audio'
reports.

73,

Tom   N0SS
