Don,

You were spot on. The SWR Bridge diodes D16 and D17 had failed. The diodes arrived today in the mail, I replaced them and my K2 is up. Thank you very much for your help.

Lack of power control with the KPA100 installed normally points to a failure of the KPA100 wattmeter circuit.

Start with replacing the 1N5711 diodes D16 and D17...

If your KPA100 was working at one time and there is *any* possibility that you encountered a lightning surge, then D16 and D17 are the most likely suspects.
