[Elecraft] Modulation interference KPA100

Harry:  Let me speculate.  When the KPA100 is "next to" the K2, you  
have it everything on your bench and away from the power supply.  But  
when you have the KPA100 "in the K2", you have returned everything to  
the operating position, which is near the power supply.  Obviously, I  
could be very wrong in my speculation, but it sure sounds to me like  
you're too near a linear power supply or other source of AC magnetic  
field once you try the K2 with the KPA100 in place.  Try moving it  
away from the problem source.

best wishes,
