[Elecraft] SSB with K2 [was KPA100 stripped final's screw removal]

Bekir,

The power output from your K2 is indeed low and your current draw is higher
than normal.
When this condition exists, the first thing to suspect is the Low Pass
Filters.

Check the inductors for the proper number of turns (count the turns as thay
pass through the center of the core - if the outside is counted, you may be
one turn in error).

Check the capacitors for proper values (look on the schematic to see the
correct values).
