I asked this question after first looking through the K2 often-asked
questions and searching under Power Output etc and not seeing any coments
related to it....

I just this minute stumbled across the answer listed under "Sluggish
Transmit" which is a good description of the symptoms.

So this is normal K2 behavior.  <sigh of relief>
