Larry:
I haven't measured my K2 output power for a while, but I recall I can
get 10 Watts out on 10 meters and at least 15 on 80 meters when I'm
using a 13.8 volt power supply. A 12 volt gelcell doesn't allow for
full output, especially at the higher frequencies. If you are using
13.8 volts, you might try to go through the alignment procedure one more
time. With your readings, it's hard to imagine there is much wrong with
the rig. Of course, you also need to be fairly confident your power
meter is accurate at these levels.

I wonder if my K2 (Serial # 2424 with latest mods and software) is set up
correctly and would appreciate comments. Output power with CAL CURR set at 3.0
amps is as below.
40 Meters = 10.0 watts out
30 Meters = 12.0 watts out
20 Meters = 11.0 watts out
15 Meters = 8.0 watts out
12 Meters = 9.5 watts out
10 Meters = 7.0 watts out
