If you posted earlier about the DaiwaCN-901 pro, it did not go through the reflector, or at least I didn't get it. I'm not sure if anyone else got it either.

As mentioned, when I added SWR DaiwaCN-901 pro, my maximum output power was 
only 80 w on RTTY. After some research, and as JP said, it is a common issue 
with Icom 7300.
I found the video:

I also contacted ICOM America, and they shared with me that fine to proceed. So 
now I'm getting my full power.

Phillipe,
If you want real accuracy on power, swr and other parameters, I would suggest 
the Telepost LP-100a or LP-500a. I believe these instruments are the standard 
setters for ham radio power readings.  I have an LP-100a and it has performed 
flawlessly for several years.

Philippe,

Just a suggestion, but I bought a Surecomm SW-102HF digital from Amazon for $69 
that does wattage &SWR in a compact package. I have the UHF/VHF model as well 
and the output lined up with what I was seeing on my old MFJ and wattmeter on my 
rig, which is a Yaesu FT-840 I bought in 1999. It puts out about 21 watts AM (84 
PEP) into a dummy load. It makes sense since the electrolytic capacitors in the 
older radios tend to degrade over time.

Hi,
I want to check the transmitting power on my ICOM 7300 accurately. Anyone has 
equipment I can use? I can stop by your QTH. Thanks in advance.
