I also experienced the low power issue.
It has improved significantly since I cleared the ATU memory using the clear
function. Too soon to know if that actually cured the problem.

I'm having a problem of low power output on SSB on 40 meters.  Call for 100
watts, get 50 or less peak on LP-100 watt meter.

Reinstalled FW 3.04, calibrated K3 watt meter, calibrated TX GAIN using the
K3 utility and an OHR 100 watt dummy load.  Problem remains.

CW output is OK on all bands, albeit a bit on the low side (around 90 out
when 100 requested).

I updated the firmware to 3.04 last night. Today, after I tune, I get no or
low power out indicated on the RF meter in SSB. Keying down momentarily
restores power in SSB.

Are others experiencing this?
