To measure RF power accurately, it needs to be into a Known Impedance. I would run the RF Calibrate Test, in the K3 Utility program. Ray WA6VVAB K3

If I connect a dummy load, ~40w (1.1:1 SWR).Should it send out more RF power or this is what is expected.? I thought I read it should be something around 90w (?) Any suggestions.?
