Hey Bob, I am using the KX2. And what I am referring to is the RF Meter, not a watt meter. The crazy thing is it only happens on 10 meters. When I have the radio set to 10 Watts and key the Mic, the RF Meter will not move when I talk. If I set the watts to 9.6 the RF Meter moves every time I talk

Mine shows the power output regardless of the PWR setting.  It shows a 10 watt full scale range when it is set to 10 watts PWR or less.  If I set the PWR to 20 watts the meter switches to 100 watts full scale and indicates accordingly.    My default TUNE power setting is 25 watts and the meter

From page 9 of the manual: "K3S/100 typ.  Suggested max from 51 - 51 MHz, 85 W,  52 - 54 MHz 70 W. "    There are other specs related to K3S/10 and transverter outputs. Looks like 100 watts is a good number from 50 - 51 MHz.   I see that on my radio and I've not checked power above 51 MHz.   T
