Tony,
The other comments are correct, but I will add one more. Adjust the SSB
audio so that you have 5 to 7 bars on the ALC meter when talking into
the mic. If you have less than that, the K3/K3S will "Power Hunt"
trying to keep up with the requested power.

The K3S makes 110 watts measured so the rigs finals appear to be just
fine. Audio is also clean with no distortion. After further testing, I
found that the power drop is only momentary.
The RF output on the KPA500 does drop when the drive on the K3S is
increased from 12 to 13 watts, but it quickly rebounds to it's normal
output a few seconds later.
