Dennis, That should be OK - 0.06 amps plus a 0.16 amp increase is 0.22 Amps, just like the manual indicates.
OTOH, I am concerned about the fact that the displayed voltage drops so much. If you have a 'wimpy' power supply connected that might be expected, but if your power supply is substantial, check the voltage directly at the entry to the K2 while changing GRPH from DOT to BAR - if the voltage at the power connector drops substantially, look at your power supply and its wire and connector (use #16 wire or larger). But if the voltage stays relatively constant at the power entry point, then you need to look for a soldering problem in the 12 volt power wiring in the K2. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > Thanks for the advise Tom, and Don.
