Thanks to suggestions from Dick Dievendorff, the problem seems to be an
interaction between the XKPA100, and the software I was running, DXLab
Suite, in particular Commander. I had continuous interrogation turned
on. If the software was started before the station equipment, in
confused the power-up of the KXPA100 which occasioned the other bad
behavior. By turning the continuous interrogation off, the order of
power up and software does not affect things.
