Fraser,
What is the power level at 'full power'? I have seen K2/100s that could
easily develop 160 watts on 160. To be consistent, measure the current
drawn from the power supply while the KPA100 is delivering 100 watts to a 50
ohm dummy load. All other comparisons are filled with unknown varia
Hi, our clubs K2/100 has the same problem with high curent at full power on
160m, but my own is ok. Has anyone found a cure?

Thanks Tom!
I checked my second K2/100 on 160 into a dummy load
and it looks like it draws about 18A at 12.5 VDC.
So I'm guessing I miscounted turns. Will check it out
over the weekend, assuming 10 isn't hopping.
Cheers,
Julius

At 14.2VDC supply (out of the P/S) my KPA100 draws 16A of current at
a measured 100W into the dummyload.
Just to muck up the discussion a bit more.

Anyway I have a problem... I use the KPA100 with the
