It's a long time since I built my KAT2 but I seem to recall having a similar issue myself. I don't think it matters that much. To put my mind at rest I made a 100 ohms load capable of taking a few watts for a short period and checked that I got a 2:1 reading when transmitting into that, and 1:1 into 50 ohms. -- Julian, G4ILO K2 s/n: 392 K3 s/n: ???
