Hi Mike--
Just saw your reply (in my spam folder!) after returning from a 2 week vacation; thanks very much. I ended up working via email with Elecraft support, but unfortunately we couldn't resolve it, so the rig currently is in CA for repair ;-). I will be very curious to learn from them why the power issue occurred.

Have you checked the connections of the KPA3 100w amplifier module. I have a friend that was experiencing a similar issue, and discovered that the module had become unseated somewhat causing intermittent RF power output issues. I hope this helps.
best of luck Mike N8XPQ
