Most Engineers including me like lots of meters and we have the voltage and
current instantaneous meters on our power supplies. The metering on the K3
is redundant with the meters on the power supply. A 50% duty cycle on

Lynn,
The K3 or KX3 measures the total current draw with quite reasonable
accuracy.

I'd expect the internal meter to read current into the finals, which
probably dates me pretty thoroughly to a time when "finals" was nearly
always preceded by the word "tube."
I can't check the K3 manual to see what it actually measures beca
That was suggested Chester.
It works too. You can kick around numbers and theory all day. Real world is
the best way and you have to remember, temp plays a major part too.
I have lived off grid for two years. My experience has been through trial
and error.
Mind you I don't run just ham equipment, I
Gosh Engineers...why not just suggest to Paul that he use the most simple
