Sometimes, a line or cable is just the right fraction of a specific wavelength
to act as an efficient antenna, and RF will find it's way in.
With the digimodes your soundcard is involved, so if you're getting a 'funny
noise', that's where I'd look

RFI on audio, agreed. Noise on DC, not so much. Routing is the most
important factor for DC power. It is hard to get enough turns on the proper
size wire to make a difference.

You might check the PIN diode T/R switch. The high attenuation in RX mode
and no output power even when the 100 W PA is bypassed suggest that one or
more of the PIN diodes in the T/R switch have failed "open."

Mike,
You are the only one who can determine this. Everyone else is reduced to
guessing because they don't have access to your PSU/K2/power lead.
Simple:
Measure the PSU voltage on RX at the PUS terminals.
Measure the PSU voltage on TX set to 100W at the PSU terminals.
Compare both of

Yep I’m familiar with that formula.
One of the tests in the assembly instructions was to test the current draw at
100w. It was 13A. The acceptable range was 13-18A so I thought that was a good
result.
Thanks,

The power supply is an MFJ 13.8V/25A switching power supply. It measures 13.63V
at the terminals.
The K2 shows 13.1V in receive mode.
During transmit on all bands, the K2 shows 11.3-11.9V, depending on the band.
All the power connections appear to be tight.
Thanks,
Mike NJ2OM
Okay. I will go back to your first reply and run through the items you
suggested.
Does the fact that on 40 and 80 meters, when I set the requested power to 100w,
I actually see a little more - like 103w - but the power drops off on other
bands - is that a clue to anything?
Thanks,
Mike NJ2OM
see when pressing TUNE and DISPLAY together), should read the same as
the REQUESTED power (which is what the power knob sets)?
Thanks,
Mike NJ2OM

Well, that gives me something to do! I’ll let you know how it goes.

Windows update undoes settings each time. I disable Xbox and virtual server

I thought they were more excited to do radio.

FWIW, my old K3 (Nov'08) only pulls 17.8Adc at 12.5V for 100W into 50ohm dummy
load at 14MHz.
Seems to follow your PA temp is gonna run hotter also. WHY such poor
efficiency Elecraft, (Wayne) ?
