I recently acquired a used K2 (looks nice next to my K3), but I've noticed 
something that might be of concern with it. When I enter CW mode and key down 
for the first time, there's a short delay (a split second) for the power to 
come up to full output, as indicated on my Alpha wattmeter. For instance, if 
I'm set to full 100 watt output, initial key down might start at 92-94 watts 
and then quickly go to full output. After the initial key down, all further 
sending puts out full power instantaneously. If I change modes and then come 
back to CW, the first key down will cause the behavior to repeat. This doesn't 
seem to be a big problem -- I'm getting excellent signal reports -- but I'm 
curious as to whether I should be concerned. Has anyone else on the reflector 
seen this?
