[Elecraft] K2 and the KPA100 Power Fluxuates?

On my amp 25 in gives me 750 out (750 100% DUTY CYCLE)

Each 5 watts in  = 150 out (at this power level)

So it is bouncing about from about 600 to 750 watts

Now since I run SSTV and am Starting into RTTY

Those are both steady carrier modes

I should see 0 Shifting of the power

It equates to a 20 % fluxuation in a mode that really should be 0%.

See the problem!
