[Elecraft] Lost Power out on K2

[Rich McCabe]

Hmmmm. Working now. Not sure why !

Everything looks good. Might be wise to get a new set of thermal pads for 
the finals as they are looking a little frazzled after a few bottom cover 
removals. Guess we will just have to keep an eye on it.

Thanks,

Rich

The first K2 I built has been working great for over a year. All of a sudden 
the best it would do is about 7/10 watt below 10mhz and nothing above.

The 100 watt section has been removed and get the same results. Also getting 
HI CUR.

My first guess would be final related. The nuts on the case are tight so 
disipation should not have been an issue.

Any direction on a starting point? Anything in the menus that could be out 
of whack besides the current limit? This radio has been used for a LOT of 
software testing so it is possible that we could have changed ANY menu 
setting by mistake.
