Dave,
The KAT100 power output is not sent back to the K2 unless the KAT100 is
operated without the KPA100 in-line.
With the KPA100 present, the KAT100 Vf and Vr values are only used to
compute the SWR due to the result of the tuning algorithm.
If the KPA100 is taken out of the equation (by physically removing the
KPA100), then yes, the KAT100 wattmeter power output reading will be
sent to the K2 MCU.

Thanks, Don. I've never had a problem with static before, but always
felt I was pushing my luck.
I also use the KAT100 external tuner, and leave both antennas
connected all the time. Does the Vf and Vr inside the KAT100 get sent
back to the K2, and what do you think the chances are of the 1n5711's
being bad in that too?
All of my testing has been without the tuner, but it was inline when I
first noticed the problem.
