It is pretty clear that my Heathkit Dummy load is Dead. I need to measure my
FTDX-101MP output on 6M (<200w) just to verify it is working as it should,
before I start tearing into my 5el 6M beam installation. Help would be
appreciated. I live in Edmonds , N of downtown Edmonds.
Have you considered getting one of the cheap NanoVNAs? they're around
$50, and measuring a 50 MHz beam (and the feedline) would be easy for
any of them.
For the Tx output, you pretty much need to have some sort of load that
can take the power. Of course, if your antenna is 50 ohms at the
desired frequency, then it can be the load.
