[Elecraft] KXV3B Question

I have been experiencing instability in drive to my K144XV/XV1/Beko 
HLV-1000.  I may have traced it down to the K3s' KXV3B board by creating 
another transverter, XV2, with the same setup as XV1. I  monitored the 
output of XVTR OUT with an RF power meter and 50 dummy load. I did 
observe a couple of occurrences of low power output that gradually came 
back to requested power during an 8 minute test running WSTJx's MSK144. 
The indication on the Beko watt meter is much more drastic of course.

If you have a similar issue, I would appreciate an email and what you 
might have done to correct it. My intent is to re-seat the KXV3B board 
and if that fails, then possibly replace it.
