I really like that idea. I never quite trust the lower power setting of
the K3 when the amplifier is put on-line and always manually check it to
be sure it is where I hope it is. It would be *much* better for the K3
to display the new power setting instead of those unnecessary 'KPA ... '
messages just as Fred suggested.

CHANGE: Replace both messages with one that tells me what the K3 power
will be when I next tap the paddle [or talk]. I've got the two power
levels for each band set, and most of the time it works. Occasionally,
after adjusting the high power antenna tuner with just the K3 in TUNE
[5W], going to OPER leaves the power at 5W. Once, it went to 100W which
faults off the KPA500 instantly, of course. Occasionally, the K3 stays
at low power when I go to STBY. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California
