My Orion, vintage December 2004, puts out 20 Watts in tune with the meter  
showing just a mark over 20 and the Bird 43 showing right on 20 Watts.
 
My power setting is 50 watts.  Pressing the power button puts the  Orion 
meter a needle width under 50 on the internal meter and 48 watts on the  Bird.
 
I guess I have a good one!  8^)

I've  determined that the meter itself is highly  nonlinear.
