Mike: How accurate is your DMM? The 8v and 5v regulators should still produce 8 and 5 volts even with a slightly low supply voltage. Also, if the K2's internal voltmeter reads the same as your DMM, that tells me your DMM is reading low because there is a diode in the K2 power line which wil

Mike, Since your adjustment range is on the 'edge of the cliff', it would be a good idea to identify what is causing it before it bites you later on. Check all the components for proper values and check solder connections very carefully to determine why you are running out of adjustment range.
