That's not the point at all. It's about having to ride the drive level
control on the K-3 constantly, especially in a contest, to avoid sudden
output of 1700w.
Why worry about it? No one on the other end would be able to tell one bit
of difference. I see power drop -- maybe 5 - 10 percent -- as the KPA1500
heats up...likely normal. The small bit of reflected power may also have
some minor effect on the wattmeter readings you see as well. 73, Greg-N4CC
