You might be surprised at how many times I've assisted folks with low transmitter power only to find their power meter was not accurate. It happens to the best of us, regardless of how new or how expensive the instrument might be.

A lesson I learned as a pilot and that is always have a "what if" in your pocket. What if on landing approach I lower the landing gear and one does not extend and lock? What if I pull back the throttles to cruise setting after take-off and #2 quits. What if on a cold winter day I take off, have the airplane off of the runway and look at the panel only to discover the airspeed is zero! Well there's answers for each of those, most of which I hope I never have to apply..........again!

Then I discovered that my Bird 43 meter circuit was bad. It made for a good laugh at my expense.
