My K-3 has a high current problem on 20 and 30 meters but all of the other
bands are normal.
Example currents into a Dummy Load as read on both the K-3 and Astron PS
ammeters are:
-20 meters @ 40 watts draws 19 amps.
-20 meters @ 100 watts the "High Current" warning message comes on and
draws 28 amps on the Astron.
All other bands 160-6 meters, 40 watts draws an average of 12 amps and 100
watts an average of 20 amps.
Any idea what the K-3's problem is on 20 & 30 meters?
Thanks,
Dick- K9OM
