FWIW: I use my K3/KAT3 at 100 W in RTTY contests with no issues. %
derating could be a function of the complex impedance at the end of your
transmission line ... my match on all bands is not terrible.

Hello. I recently bought a very nice K3 from a friend. It has the KAT3
auto-tuner installed. Due to the duty cycle of most digital modes, most, if
not all, external auto tuners are "de-rated" for digital modes. I haven't
been able to find any reference to this for the KAT3. Does anyone know the
power handling capability of the KAT3 for digital modes?
Thanks in advance.
