[Elecraft] K3 power supply recommendations

[Gary K9GS]

I have a question on adjusting the voltage a bit higher for use with the 
K3. I was thinking of 14.5 V, as others have mentioned, and adjusting 
voltage on receive.

I have an accurate voltmeter.

Should I set the voltage with the voltmeter measuring at the DC input to 
the K3 (at the power pole into the radio) or should I use the internal 
voltmeter in the K3?
