[Elecraft] Elecraft K1 power realignment

[W4RAM]

I want to realign the output of my K1, the radio has an internal antenna
tuner. The reason is because I check the radio is not coming out with the
proper power (test performed with dummy load and PWR-SWR meter Daiwa). "OUT"
is at 2.0W, and I can see, on the power meter, 1W.
I proceeded by removing the antenna tunner module, to be able to access L1,
... L6 (filter board for 40/20 mts band). However after this, when I try to
calibrate the RF filters, I can only get 0.1 W when I put the K1 in tune
mode. I check again the "OUT", and I stay 2W.
If I reinstall the internal antenna tuner, the radio returns to the initial
behavior (only 1W when "OUT" has been set to 2.0W).
Can someone guide me on how I should perform the power realignment process?.

Thank you
