Well, now I am out on the limb and don't quite know what to do next. I 
have completed my K2 and all previous alignments went fine. Now I am to 
the transmitter and problems. I prealigned all the band as per receiver 
using a good signal generator and receive works fine. When I try the 
transmitter I have real problems. No matter where I set the power  it 
makes no difference. If set to 2watts,  5wa tts, or  10 watts    the 
output is the same   This is what I get
3750 kHz     10w     2.48A     P 0.1  ON the  lCD
14100            1,5w    1.00A    P 0.1
10100            11w    2.48A    P 0.1
21100            9w        2.5A    P 0.1
18100            11w       2.48    P 0.1
28200            8w          2.3A    P 0.1
24900            8w           2.5A    P 0.1
As I said, it makes no difference where the power setting is, I get 
those reading. The current is higher than it should be also.
I haven't the faintest idea what to look for. The voltages on Q6, Q7, 
and  Q8 are ok.
