When opening up the Palstar DL5K dummy load
the owner can spot a ceramic capacitor at one end of
the two load resistors.
As well, the input line goes through a metal box that serves as
the pickup for the relative wattmeter on the front panel.
While never approaching the 5KW limit I have seen some
reflected energy from this device at the legal limit area and
wonder if any of you might have encountered this as well.
I went so far as to swap coax jumpers, etc., to eliminate
cable glitches and the effect followed.
