[Elecraft] K2: HRD Power Control Anomaly

Don,

My K2 is running 2.04r and I have HRD 4.1 Build 2055 Beta, which I think 
is the most recent.

My real question is what is happening in the KPA100 and the K2 when this 
happens?  Practically speaking, it isn't much of an operational problem.

73,
Randy, KS4L
