[Elecraft] Powering a K3s from a battery?

[Jim Brown]

Something you're missing, Wes. The 100W amp doesn't kick in until you 
ask for more than about 14W. So at 11-12W, you're seeing the IMD of the 
QRP exciter stage running near it's maximum power.

I'm wondering if it might be practical to modify the control software so 
that the 100W amp kicks in at lower power levels. Are there other 
consequences?  Wayne?
