receive sensetivity down about six S units with amp in place.

I have a k2 which works fine but when I add the 100 watt amp the receive sensetivity drops several s units.  I checked continuity and it seems good. The problem is in the amp board.  what???

Don,

If it is down when the power is set to either low or high, then it is
most likely the Low Pass Filters in the KPA100.  Is there any difference
between the bands?, or is it constant across all bands?.  It is also
possible that relays K1 and K2 are at fault.
If it happens only at high power settings, then the problem is most
likely in the T/R switch area.
