[Elecraft] low power on 6 meters

[Robert Garceau]

I have seen this issue posted before, but no answers that I can see.

 

I have a K3 and the output is no more than 52 watts with an swr of
1.23..sometime get it up to 62.

 

Now I have the KPA500 and using 40 watts to exite the amp, I get just a tad
over 425 watts.

 

Don't think I want to push it over 40 watts. And to be honest there probably
isn't much difference between 425 and 500, but would like to know why I
can't get the 100 like I should..
