Thanks Wayne.  Battery voltage is in the range of 12 - 13.8 V, depending 
on what the solar panels are doing.

As to residual on accessories -- I've got I/O for the Yankee Clipper 
SO2R box plugged into both radios. That has a WinKey emulator, which 
feeds the Key input, a paddle which it switches to the paddle input, a 
CM500 mic, which it switches to the rear panel input (and for which the 
K3 is providing bias), and headphones, switched to the rear panel phones.

I tried unplugging it from one of the radios and nothing changed.
