Most of these problems show up external to the radio, so make sure you do as much testing by changing things such as patch cables, tuners, antenna switches, etc.
You do want to make sure you are testing into a dummy load on a very simple setup with only the radio, wattmeter and dummy load. If that is ok and your number are about 90 watts or more, then you can start to look elsewhere. Make sure the tuner is turned off in the 5K if it is one or you have one.
