At first i suspected my Solar power system which was installed a year ago, but now I plugged my K3 S/N 7317 directly into my 25A switching DC power supply, and when key down, 100W in CW, on the internal K3 Power Meter i see a voltage drop from 13.6 to 12.0VDC. My power cord is a 6', 10ga stranded copper wire pair with Andersen Power Pole connectors. I have tried three separate power cords, all 10ga with power pole connectors, but with no change in the voltage drop scenario. If anyone has suggestions of where the problem lies, I am all ears. Obviously, when operating SSB the drop is present but not as severe. What am i dealing with? Better yet, how do i fix it? Thanks in advance. Cheers, Mike, K5MP
