The only other issue I have is that the low power carrier is 5W when the PWR is set at 12W and jumps to 15W when PWR is set to 13W. It is 100W at the 100W setting.
This "smells" like an LPA failure to me. Low power should increase smoothly from 0 to 12 W. The HPA should kick in above 12 W and the power should increase smoothly again. The behavior is very much like severe compression above 5W in the LPA.
I would first perform both the LP and HP power calibration. If that does not resolve the issue I would contact Elecraft Support. 73, ... Joe, W4TV

It is independent of frequency, power, mic type, recorded or not, Hi or Lo mic gain setting, and mic drive level.

CW operation is unaffected.
