[Elecraft] 2A @ 5W :(

[John]

Well, I'm in the final stages of testing #3906 .. looks like I've 
flubbed it somewhere, cause I'm getting high currents in the 40M TX 
tests. Power dosn't seem to want to get much over 5W independent of 
current draw (it goes up as high as I allow the limit setting).

The radio appears to recieve just fine on all bands .. sounds better 
than my FT-100 :)

I searched the archives, and became suspicious of my power cable .. 
replaced it, but with power set for 10 the current still goes right up 
as high as I've set the limiter (havn't gone past 3.5). Power's getting 
to the load, nothing's heating up dramatically, but the best I've seen 
the K2's power meter has been 6.5 or so.

I'm off to borrow a Bird and a sig-gen, but in the meantime does anyone 
have any advice to offer?
