KX3/KXPA100 POWER ISSUES

Elecraft mailing list
I'm running a KX3 with a KXPA100 and just started to have some power issues.  There is a substantial difference between what the watts out on the rig show and what shows up on the KXPA power out meter.  Here's what's showing in watts between the rig and the amp:
KX3    KXPA25      5030      5050      80 w/90 flashing60      90 w/100 flashing70      100100    110
Any ideas on what's going on and how might I fix this?
Thanks,Jim W7JHR

This can happen if you have a poor power connection to the KXPA and the input
voltage drops.  Use the KXPA utility to check the input voltage during tx.

You can also monitor the voltage on the readout of your KX3.
