[Elecraft] Whats the deal with my K2/100

One quick check that the power control really works would be to
measure the total current input to the K2. If it is 2-4 amps, you can
be positive you're not transmitting 100watts! If the current goes down
as you turn down the power control, you know the power control is
working.

..or.. just power the K2 via the small power connector on the lower
half of the K2's back panel. When you turn it on you should get a
message that there is no power on the PA. Can't go much above 10watts
without the PA.

In truth you're just experiencing the Elecraft 'mojo'. The stuff
works, and works very well!
