Thanks Steve. Yes, it's a linear supply although I've never had occasion to
look inside of it. Occasionally, the K3 shuts down when I key it so I need
to check for voltage drop and then see if it needs adjusted. At least it
should be a fairly straight-forward problem to deal with and I do have one
of the old rad shack talking multi meters. 73, Lou -- WA3MIX
