[Elecraft] CAL CUR 3.50 Amps

[KEN BROWN]

The CAL CUR recommendation is on page 84.
Owner's manual  Revision E.
"The recommended setting is 3.50 A."
Also I just built a K2 and my Power control settings
are a bit off.   For example,  if I request  P  1.0  I get
2 watts.   I always get a few extra watts from the actual
Power request.   Is this common or do I have a minor
problem?   The battery/power supply is a Power-Sonic
battery and pulsed charge regulator,   the wattmeter is
a Daiwa SWR/power meter.   Also,  my maximum power 
out is 14.50 watts  at a Power request of around P  12.0.


Also Mouser Electronics catalog has a KLEAN TIP
device for cleaning the tip of a soldering iron on the
Weller soldering irons page.  It looks like a sponge
material and a tray.
