My theory in these cases is that it's nothing to do with bad antenna connections, but more due to the rig putting out a higher harmonic content at higher power levels. The SWR meter sees a bad SWR at the harmonic frequency so the reading is slightly worse.

My FT-920's SWR meter would usually shift a bit when I increased power to 100w and I would then quickly tweak it back down. With the K3's SWR meter (no ATU installed), after setting the tuner at 10w or so, the reading stays the same when power is increased to 100w.> ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
