I gave up running my K3 through a RigRunner for just that
reason. I put in a short lead directly to the battery bank APP
junction strip and things got a lot better. They got even better
with a N8XJK Boost Regulator between the K3 and the junction.
(Tested with 100W into a dummy load.)

In fact, anything in line between the power supply and radio

Yes. I've been told that the DC bus in popular DC distribution
strips is quite small considering the rated current. They're
fine for accessories that don't draw much current, but don't
run your rig through them (unless it's QRP)!
