Hi Don, Sorry, I forgot to mention that I have tried using several Wattmeters after the KPA100 and before the KAT100, and they all pretty much agree. I will calibrate the pot as you suggest. Thanks.

Is the 8 watts and the 40 watts what is indicated on the K2 or what is indicated on an external wattmeter. If it is an external wattmeter, then the answer is easy - calibrate the forward power pot in the KPA100. OTOH, if the power indication is on the K2 display, look carefully at your dummy load. A good 50 ohm dummy load connected directly to the K2 should provide a power output of 2 watts and 20 watts on the K2 display (but the KPA100 wattmeter still needs to be calibrated before the actual power is equal to what the K2 displays). 73, Don W3FPR -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
