Hi Bill,
Running a test with my Flex 5000A (PSDR ver 2.6.4) on 40 meters I see
pretty consistent results when using the PowerSDR "Tune" function set to
a power level of "100" to produce a steady carrier into a dummy load:
Flex Fwd Pwr meter display = exactly 100 watts

Thanks to everyone who has responded to my original question, below.
Per W1AEX's fine article, MIC TX readings hover in the -7 to -10 region but
virtually never go above -2. DITTO the TX EQ meter (really had to back down
on that EQ preamp slider). The TX Leveler readings are generally below -

This will start a big discussion on the use of ALC. ALC should not hit
zero.
Once ALC starts to move, you are already into limiting.

Bill,
Switch the TX meter to ALC and make certain that the meter is hitting "0"
(but not above) on voice peaks. If the ALC is not reaching "0", then you
will not get the full 100W out.

Flexers,
This sounds like a real newbie question that I have responded to many times
myself but curious what the assembled multitude thinks.
What sort of peak power to you guys show on your Flex 5000s running "100
watts" into a more or less resonant antenna? My Flex 5000 shows roughly 100
