Since we discovered how to apply string theory, we have been doing very well
with a couple of paper cups on each end of a string. This allows us to
communicate almost everywhere at any time, including yesterday. Sometimes
the strings get tangled and we have wide ranging nets. Quite often though

If you mean slow response of the ALC to an audio overdrive condition,
the answer is yes. If you mean SSB output sometimes being well below
the TUNE level, the answer is yes. If you mean the power being low on
the first SSB transmission after power on, the answer is yes.

Wayne - if it rains on your vacation maybe you can figure out how to stop the
clicky noises I get in my Heil Pro headset on CW. If there is a signal on the
receive frequency (e.g. when chasing a dxpedition, working split) the clicks
are much more obtrusive the louder the on-frequency signal is.
Petr,
After 'RTC' appears in the menu, he must press the EDIT button until
OFF is displayed. Then he can rotate the VFO knob (or tap the BAND+
and BAND- buttons) to change it.
If the indication is -- instead of ON or OFF, then there is a problem
on the KAF2 board that must be corrected.

More info
I have been testing my K2 on the power issue.
I have the following findings
It is stabel on low power. I set it to 5 watt, press tune and it is stabel.
turn the power up to 50 watt, and it goes from 42 to 50. stop the tuning,
press tune again and the power is 28 watts

Sorry, but that does not help a lot - the operation in TUNE that you
describe in normal. TUNE (with the KPA100) normally controls power at
20 watts. If you enter TUNE and then turn the power control, it will
try to produce the power that is set on the power control knob.

Joe,
The most likely thing is that the sidetone source has been accidently
toggled to U6 - 25.
Enter the menu for ST-L and edit the parameter (press EDIT) - then tap
DISPLAY to toggle between the two sources. Stop when you hear sidetone.
