Just acquired used KX1. 

Two problems. None of my screwdrivers moves 20m trimmers. Any idea?

The power as indicated by LP100 is 1W or less with 9V alkalines; the lowest
in on 20m.

I made more detailed measurements on 20m. At 12V, the maximum power is 2.2 W
measured by LP-PAN and 2.6 W with the inside meter; increasing the voltage
does not help on 12V. The radio draws about .6A. Assuming the the final
draws .5A, the efficiency seems to be 40-45%, much below that of a  C class
amplifier.

On 40 and 30, The LP100-measured power is 2.4 at 12 rising to 3W with 14V.
