Hi,
try blowing in to your mic for 3 or 4 seconds, that should give you an
accurate power reading. It works for me on a TS2000 and an Icom IC703 and
IC706.

Maybe so, but you won't ever get reliable readings that way. The human
voice is prone to fluctuations, and that gets worse if you're trying to
listen to a talking meter. It always amazes me how much time and effort is
spent on trying to get accurate power readings from the transmitter while
using our voices as a signal. Kind of like trying to measure the speed of
your car accurately while the tires are spinning in sand or ice.
