Seems fairly accurate here...though i don't have a resonant 6M antenna to
really speak to it's accuracy.  I see fairly similar results of rf output on
audio peaks on 6M ssb as on 20M ssb, but again, no way to really measure
correctly since the antenna I am using is tuned into oblivion.
I'll do some tests on 6 on  AM and FM tomorrow and list the results here to
see if they are similar to other ts2000 users experiences.
I don't have a dummy load, but i think the way the antenna is tuned with a
tuner, it might as well be a dummy load with a dead flat match.
speaking of which, if anyone has a dummy load laying around that they aren't
using, let me know, I can provide an excellent loving home for it.
I only need one that can handle 100W since there is no amplifier here.
Conversely, if anyone knows of a source for good high power 50ohm resistors,
I can build one.
