Re: FT857d with external SWR/POWER Meter


 

I think your wattmeter may be lying to you, check your O/P against another meter and of course a dummy load.

My 857 is 15yrs old and only puts out 100W, unless you have tweaked it.

At the 100-W setting my meters tell me my 857 typically puts out about 120 watts. If The maximum capacity of Russ's meter is 100 watts this could explain why it's pegging at the 100 watt setting.
