kx3 hi-temp

[Reginald J Mackey SR-3]

        While transmitting on 6 meters fm with an swr of 1.1.1, I get a indication on the display of HI-Temp. I have it set for 10 watts. Anyone have an explanation?

Thanks in Advance

Yes, Reggie, according to the specification on page 52 of the Owner's
Manual, the maximum power output from 12 metres and higher is 8W. I
suggest you lower the power on 6m and see if the error message goes.

And the Manual also says that you should run 5W or less on FM and high
duty cycle modes. You need to reduce the power to 5W.
