Dave,

I saw the same thing with the bandpass tuning, but did not
know what I was really looking at.  I thought the adjustment to 300 Hz
was rather course and using shift was also course. I have a 500 Hz
filter which did OK.  But, it was hard to deal with the width/shift
issue because of the lack of a "fine" mode.  That is a brilliant idea
if they can do it.  I just lived with it, but the K3 is so good at 500
Hz filter I had very little issues receiving...except for those guys (
and I must have been one too) that would crowd you.  I think there
should be a fine mode for both width and shift.

As far as the
amp is concerned...I have an AL82...and I saw nothing like that, but I
do not have the meter you might have.  I just noticed a power drop of
200 watt or so when I was using the dual PB feature.  I left it off for
most of the contest.  I also saw a drop in signal strength when I
turned it on.  Other than that, the AL82 is not all the sophisticated
about the spike issue...at least on my metering I could not see
anything.  I have my TX delay set at 25 (I think)

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
