If you have an external wattmeter (a lot of antenna tuners/dummy loads
should have this), then go through the wattmeter calibrations to ensure your
internal wattmeter is reading correctly.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Transmitter Gain Cal Failure at 1mW with KXV3a

Hello K3 Support,

I installed the KXV3a tonight into my K3 and when I went to do the
Gain Calibration it failed on 6 Meters as it was unable to get the required
output.

Any idea why this output could be low on this band (I believe it only
reached an 8 out of the expected 10)?

Thank you,
