[Elecraft] [K2] K2/100 power out on 10m SSB...

[VK7JB]

Just noticed that power out on 10m (28490) CW and in TUNE mode is 85W, but
maximum PEP on SSB is 30W.

All other bands, I get 100W out in CW/TUNE & SSB.  I'm checking this by
running K2/100  into a 50 ohm dummy load.  Wattmeters are a WavenodeWN-2 and
Autek WM1. Same  PO PEP recorded with both.

I've done the mod replacing K2 R98 with a 1k0 resistor to reduce the ALC
dithering on 40m. This did reduce the power out on 10m in CW and TUNE from
100W to 85W, but I was happy with that compromise for the more stable ALC
action.

Any explanation why is the output SSB is so much reduced compared with CW
and TUNE modes?

73,
