Hi all,?
After resolving my update woes (thanks Art N2AJO !!) I feel things are pretty stable.
I know that the rig should be capable of upwards of 40 Watts on the lower bands. I'm not seeing that at 100% drive.
Here is what I'm seeing, which I'm happy with, but would like to know if I need to tweak anything or look for a problem:
(Into a fairly resonant antenna on most bands but tuned to close to 1:1)
BAND? ? ? ? ? WATTS
80? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?15
40? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?18
30? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?20
20? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?21
17? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?12
15? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?12
12? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?10
10? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?11
I would say accuracy is + or - 2 Watts with this setup.
Sorry, I have misplaced my dummy load.
Anyway, is there anything I should be doing or looking at.? Otherwise, I'm enjoying the rig.
