I finished the installation of the 3080 option, and everything seems okay, but 
my power out seems to have dropped on all bands. Not by a lot, but I'm 
wondering if something is amiss.
Here are the numbers, using the same 13.4v external supply before and after:

Band      Before 3080      After 3080
80m       n/a                    3.1w
40m       3.9w                  2.7w
30m       4.2w                  3.9w
20m       3.8w                  2.8w

looks like I've lost about a watt on 20 and 40.

Current draw is good on all bands, about 65ma on 80 and 45 ma on the others.

Is this worth worrying about?

I read about the resistor mod, but that would raise output on all bands, maybe 
pushing 30 and 80 up above 4 watts, perhaps not a good idea.

Is there an adjustment I missed for 20 and 40?

Thanks,
