I've had the same issue with power supply leads - a little polishing raised the output under load by almost 0.8VDC. A little dab of NO-OX ID A on the studs and rings should keep 'em clean going forward.

Removing the power cable from the back of the Astron and sanding the wires ends lightly (though no corrosion could be seen) solved the problem. 73, andy ae6y Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: donov...@erols.com Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2021 6:22 AM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft contact- K3 power problem Gordon, Have you verified that your power supply and DC power cable are delivering full voltage to your K3 when the K3 is set to deliver 110 watts output? This is a frequent cause of low power output. Use the K3 internal voltmeter 73 Frank W3LPl -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> On Behalf Of Gordon LaPoint Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2021 3:53 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft contact I have a problem with my K3, only 60-70 watts out, even after calibration on 5 and 50 watts. This is the first time I have had a problem with the K3, after years of good operation. I emailed support over a week ago and called them on the phone last week, still have not heard anything. What is the correct email for support??
