[Elecraft] K3-100 Low Power Output

Just to be more clear. The AL1200 takes a full 100W to drive. That's how I
found out I had a problem.
When I did the transmitter gain calibration I ren directly from the rig
thru my LP-100A watt meter then to the dummy load. I tried changing out the
coax and the swr was at 1.05 or less at all times. I had the tuner bypassed
and I calibrated at 5w and 50w like the manual says to do using the K3
utility. I have done this a number of times and have the same results. I
can only get 100w out on 12 and 30m.
