Ok, where do we find out more about this? I just finished inventory and
my C31 is a .033uF.

Jeff,
In that case, what is the size of C31? If it is the old .033 uF it must
be changed to the new .22 uF value. You can get one from Elecraft when
they get back in the office, but if you have two .1 uF caps with a
voltage rating of 50 volts or more, you can parallel them for the time
being.

Don, thanks, it's the newest KPA100, just bought/built it about a
month or two ago...

Jeff,
Before we give any answer, we need to know the level of the KPA100.
Did you build it from the manual Revision D or the earlier Rev C?
Another way of checking - do you have a toroid at L15 and is RFC10
present?
It is not likely to be a sticking relay problem - that almost never
happens with the KPA100.
