Did you see this part in Ed's earlier post ;
"
An LP-100A on the output of the KPA1500 is also used and displays the correct low
SWR at all drive levels that I would expect to be seeing on the KPA1500
display."
This would also should any power breakdown, but it doesn't ?

changing by a significant amount depending on the drive level.
Look for something breaking down in your antenna system or between the
power amp and the antenna. High power has a way of finding weaknesses
that low power lives with.
