Duane:

Does your Omni have a 20 watt mark on the meter?  Mine is
marked at 15
and then again at 25.  There's nothing in between these two
but space.
With a non linear meter, I wonder just where 20 is in the
scope of
things.

Mine is marked in the following sequence at 10 , 15 , 25, a
hash mark
(presumed to be 50) and a much larger segment over the 100.

73

that full output measured 100w on both the VI+ and the Model
238 (compared to my Autec WM-1).  When the drive was dropped
to indicate 20W on the Omni, it was 22W on the Autek and 24W
on the Model 238 tuner.  This held true on both 40m and 10m
into a dummy load.  FWIW...
