I'm using an OMNI VI (Opt. 3) tied directly (no Transmatch) to a RadioWorks Carolina Windom CW-80. The built-in meter shows an SWR of 2.0:1 or less on 80-10 meters except 2 1/2:1 on 30 meters. This seems extraordinary to me and I'm wondering if: (1) I need to use an outboard S-meter to get a true reading or (2) the CW-80 and OMNI VI go very well together. Also, I'm talking CW sub-bands only.

Any comments?
