Ross, Was that into a dummy load? If not, what is the SWR? If the SWR is not 1:1, you will see a false high power reading.

This is just a question of curiosity. The other day I checked the power output on CW with a fairly accurate wattmeter. It closely agrees with the meter on PowerSDR which reads 122 watts. Is this in the range that others see? Not bad for a 100 watt radio. All transmit calibration is as it left the factory. 73 Ross K9COX. _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
