I just made my first CW QSO with the Orion where I ran full (100w) power. I
noticed that at the beginning of a transmission, the meter would peg as I
could hear it hitting the stop.  It quickly dropped back to 100w. I was
transmitting into my triband beam which has a pretty low (< 1.5) SWR.  My
rise time was set at 8 ms, I was keying at 16 WPM.

73,
Mark
