decrease? or increase?
It seems as though with my ldg1, if the match is high, the out put power
jumps way way up where it's not suppose to be...the higher the match, the
higher the power reading.
For instance, when i check swr on my 80M long wire on 160, the match is
around 75 to 1, and the power is showing around 250 watts out of a 97 watt
transmitter....
even a match of 1.5 to one will offset the power by a few watts...not sure
if this is just my unit or particular station configuration or not...if i
get say a 2 to one match, my output power can sometimes show up to 5 or 6
watts higher then what it is actually putting out.
