Hi Glenn: Without claiming accuracy to any traceable standard, I just fired up my trusty old 100 MHz HP 1740A O-scope, calibrated the display to the built-in 1 volt calibration standard, and measured the P-P voltage into a 51 ohm resistance (no measurable reactance). At 100 watts commanded an

Hi group, I was just wondering if anyone has done TX power measurements with precision measuring gear and compared these measurements against the K3's internal indication of the output power? Just curious here. The K3/100 is advertized as a 100W transceiver (or should that be "100W class"?) an
