[Elecraft] power troubles

[Dave G4AON]

K3/100, firmware 1.78 MCU/1.58 DSP, mine gives plenty of RF envelope 
with a peak of 100W on my 100 MHz scope.
No issue with peaks, overshoot or anything at all, the audio reports 
from several stations are also very complimentary. There's nothing wrong 
with either the "loudness" of the signal or anything else.

Mic gain 30 (front panel, high gain setting), compression 20, microphone 
Kenwood MC-43S.

There have been numerous posts on this topic.

I wish somebody using current firmware would get out an oscilloscope and see
if the K3 putting out peak power or not on SSB. A study with various gain
and compression levels would help.

You can bet when my K3 arrives, I'll test this.

Meters (even "PEP" LED displays) can't be trusted to read peak power for
SSB.
