[Elecraft] High SWR on KPA500

I have noticed that the SWR reading on one of my two KPA500s will show almost 1.8:1 while the KAT500 show 1:1.  My other KPA500 does not exhibit this behavior.

       It would seem to me that if the KAT500 has tuned out the SWR and indicates a 1 to 1 match then the KPA-500 should also show a low SWR.

  And as I said my other KPA500 when I put it in-line with the same cables does not have this SWR inconsistent with the KAT-500.

  Do you have any ideas of something I can look for?
