The plot thickens!
Looks like this one may have to make a trip back to the factory
Not only is the swr metering out of wack, but the total RF power
output is quite low
on 40 meters with the power set at full bore, I get about 76 watts out.
14.0 volts, 22 amp
50 ohm load
NO band produces more than 80 watts output
While I know that there is +/- 10% power output, less than 80 watts
is out of spec----especially for a radio that costs $3k
