[Elecraft] K2 AGC low voltage

[Mark Mellish]

Hi K2 builders,
I'm working on K2 #6318, and the voltage at pin 5 of of U2 is maxed out at 3.61v.  The 8v regulator is only putting out 7.56v.  I see some posts in the archives recommend replacing the regulator, and a couple that say to leave it alone, and all will be well.  Is there a final word on this?  What is the tolerance on the regulator?  I would much rather change out U4 now rather than later.  Will Elecraft likely have an 8v replacement, or will it just be luck?  U5 is putting out 4.95v.
Thanks, Mark
