Howard,

Sorry I really can't do a check on 6 meters.   To get 6 m RF to the 
dummy load, and through The TW-1 and Wavenode,  I'd have to move a few 
cables around behind the desk,  and bypass a lp filter that cutsoff 
above 30 mhz.

I will tell you however, that when running the TS-2000 as the only rig 
in the shack and  all the junk connected properly, the TW1  only showed 
about 50 watts,  while the Wavenode showed 100.

In my experience, any time I have multiple  ways of reading power and 
there seems to be some discrepancy, the TW-1 is always the odd man out.

Hope that helps.

73, Steve  KW3A
