Bob,

If you are measuring a 100 watt signal with a 2500 watt slug, you can expect significant errors. Even the Bird slugs (right after calibration) offer only a 5% of full scale accuracy. With a 2500 watt slug, that means a possible error of +/- 125 watts at any point on the scale. For best results, use a slug that is as close to the maximum power that you expect as possible.

10% of Average, or Peak Envelope Power?
Are you using  a PEP Watt meter?
