[Elecraft] K2 High Current Message

2008-03-01 Thread Ken Kirkley/NO4D
When keying up my K2 in SSB at 10 watts I get a momentary flash of high current. Is this a sign of a problem? Seems like there is a setting in the menu in regards to this, but want to be sure before I do anything. The transmit is fine, just the momentary flash of high current. Thanks!
