[Elecraft] K2 Low Power Out / Hi Current

[Don Wilhelm]

Jeremy,

A high SWR will cause that behavior.
Make certain the coax you are using is good.  Remove it from the K2 end 
and check with an antenna analyzer if possible.
If you cannot do that, look at the SWR registered on the wattmeter - if 
it is 1:1, remove the wattmeter and connect that coax to the dummy load 
(no wattmeter).
