From page 9 of the manual: "K3S/100 typ. Suggested max from 51 - 51
MHz, 85 W, 52 - 54 MHz 70 W. " There are other specs related to
K3S/10 and transverter outputs.
Looks like 100 watts is a good number from 50 - 51 MHz. I see that on
my radio and I've not checked power above 51 MHz. The internal tuner
operates at around 5 to 7 watts output while resolving a match. Using
the internal tuner seems to tell me the external devices are not
operating with a 50 ohm nonreactive load attached. In that case, being
voltage sensing devices, the load will affect the power indications.
The point which would concern me most is having 3 different power
measuring devices which give significantly different values.

Did you check the specs? I don’t think it is supposed to put out full 110
Watts on 10 or 6 meters.

What is the expected output on 6 meters?
The K3 shows 110W
The P3 watt meter says 73.1W
The LP-100A says 60.1W
When I use the internal tuner it never
breaks into the higher power range, it
only outputs at 7 watts tops.
On all the lower bands it puts out 100
reliably.
Thanks & 73,
