Wasn't I just saying something about this?
That is was junk?
*Problem Equipment*
• K2—Phase Noise
– No cure – don't run high power
• FT1000MP—Klix –
–Well known mods can fix
• Icoms—leading edge spike
– Bucket Technique
************************• Alpha 77-EBS, Ameritron AL-series**
** EBS option**
** – Fix or disable*
Thanks

Unfortunately, the K3 transmitter IMD specs are not good enough for
amplifier testing.
While that's true, IMD from a K3 is VERY sensitive to output power and
DC supply voltage. At 100W, it ain't grand, but it's a lot better in
the range of 25-50W typically used to drive an amp. IMD also decreases
with higher DC supply voltage. As I understand it, the radio is
designed to run from a 13.8V supply, and 15V is the max rated supply
voltage.
There's measured data on this on my website, done by K6XX.
