[Elecraft] My K2/100 keeps resetting at high power

Ditto here with my K3/100, except that the Astron 20 recently developed a
bad habit of crowbar'ing when I get on 20 meters with the KPA500.  Slams off
IMMEDIATELY on transmit with the amp.  I guess it doesn't like 500+ watts @
20' (my vertical).  Waiting for the KAT500, which will resolve that issue
(the wire antenna is 60' away but requires a tuner).  :-\

I'm glad that switching to a bigger Astron supply solved your problem.  I
would note, however, that I've been running my KPA100 with an Astron 20 at
the 100 watt level for the past year with no problems.

Best regards -
