I have retested and the output as shown on the k2 tracks more closely
with the watt meter. On 40m with the k2 showing 10 watts, I am seeing
2.6 amps.
When I push it to the maximum, it shows between 14 and 16 watts
depending on the band.
This is normal.
I have set cal cur to 3.25amps. When I crank it to full output, after
abt 10 seconds I see the mpu reset (drops out of xmit and the elecraft
name appears in the lcd). Is this a sign of trouble or some safety logic
to keep it out of 'full carrier' mode for long?
No, it shouldn't do this. if the CAL CUR setting is exceeded, you will get a Hi
Cur indication but the MPU should not reset. What are you using for a power supply?
