Thanks for the follow-up Nate.
I believe I agree with you about the QRPGuys meter - especially on 30M AND 60m.

I reran TX tests today with my Elecraft DL1 dummy load and measured via DMM using:
-- a QRPKits Accuprobe? at the center pin input on the Elecraft Dummy load
?
AND . .
-- the test point on the Elecraft DL1 with regular DMM leads?
?
Both agree nicely within a few, small percents.

Here's an updated list of what I think the Power Out is:
?
80? ? ? ? ? 5.2
60? ? ? ? ? 6.0
40? ? ? ? ? 5.1
30? ? ? ? ? 5.6
20? ? ? ? ? 4.5
?
When I get back north in the spring, I'll fire up the O-scope and see exactly what's what.?
?
And yes, used the WTST winding for 9V using 28 gauge wire.? (And all the other toroid winds)
?
RF sweeps are OK especially for 40 and 20 where the radio will be used the most.
The other bands have the center frequency at varying levels down from the peak.
I might try adjusting sections of L12 but decided to just play the darn thing and see if its really needed :)
