That did it. Many thanks, Steve. I took it a couple of steps further also. Got 
out a bunch of snap on ferrites and made a couple of one turn wraps on the AEX 
power cable. Further, I had intended on installing the MFJ 1164B AC Line RFI 
Filter (a 4-plug rugged RFI filter with a separate external ground), so I 
plugged it into a separate AC circuit and that combination made the AEX happy. 
500 watts no problem. 
Like so many people, I have several Mac computers, two printers, an audio 
system, lamps, misc. gear all in proximity to the K3S and KPA500, and even 
though I do run a separate AC line for the ham gear, the non-ham gear is 
powered with a hodgepodge of power strips and extension cords. Clearly I need 
to get those in order also. So, case closed — happy to advise anyone who might 
have the same issue on my steps to resolve it. Back to my Oscar party. :—)
