Re: [IC-7000] Re: Power Bar reading.

I meant lead length on the resistors used in the dummy load. Negligible at HF, slight at VHF, bothersome at UHF. I think due to line losses, you could make a dummy load out of a few hundred feet of line... No reflected, means no SWR? Expensive...
I don't think he is getting a real SWR reading, as the SWR meter on the 7K does not work on VHF/UHF. Needs an external one. Often, a 2 meter antenna, though it should, will not tune on 440. KC4BO

Lead length (at least less than several hundred feet) will not affect SWR if the dummy load is 50 ohm¡. Lead length will cause power loss. ?
