That's still too much. Last time I measured my K3, the drop was 0.6 V
on TX at 100W. Cartridge type [AGC] fuses and the holders are common
culprits. I've replaced all of my fuses with the automotive fuses with
the blade type contacts. They present a large contact area, are very
tight, and have a large wipe as you insert and remove them.

Thanks to all. I have check my PS and it does not fluctuate even a
tenth of a volt on TX. With the radio connected directly to the PS. I
am now seeing 14.1 VDC and 12.0 VDC on TX. So I need to look closer at
the wire gauge and connectors. That is still about 2VDC drop.
