In any event I want to see 100w output which Im not seeing ideas or
suggestions would be appreciated.

You're not alone: I too have less than 100 watts output from my
month-old K3. The supply voltage is 13.6 volts under load at the
Elecraft pigtail. I have an Autek WM1 and two Bird 43 wattmeters that
agree pretty closely. The driver delivers >10 watts. 

I assumed I'd have to send the rig back to Elecraft, something I'm not
anxious to do right now, so have not talked to them about it. I could
take it back into the shop where I can put it on the spectrum analyzer
and other instrumentation. But many things on my plate so I'll just let
you be the guinea pig, Mike. 

Let me know if/how you resolve the problem.
