FYI: My 9100 does not meet spec, either. I am a little low on both 2M and 70
cm. On 1296, I get about 7 watts - and that is measured using a real power
meter. Never checked it on Six or HF. Not meeting power output specs seems to
be a trend in the industry. I don't think any of my D Star radios put out what
they are supposed to. My FT 2000 actually exceeds the specified 200 watts on
160M. But, puts out about 195 watts on 6M. Anyone besides me remember the
1970's, when a 10 watt radio actually put out 11 or 12 watts?

Subject: Re: [VHFcontesting] IC910H Power Output Question
I have an IC-910H s/n 027XX that I purchased used. On 2m FM, it puts out about
90-95 watts through a Daiwa CN-103L wattmeter into a dummy load using RG-400
cables while powered by an Astron SS-25 power supply. On 70cm FM it puts out
60-65 watts using the same test equipment.
