I have a dual-probe LP100A inline with the power amp outs in my SO2R 
station. It auto-switches to the active TX. I have a kW dummy load 
sitting under the operating desk, but it's not part of antenna 
switching, and I haven't used it in years.

Dummy load with integral digital meter (digits preferred instead of LEDs)..
To make one out of a W2 would require a W2, that after market KV5J digital
readout or a computer, and the directional coupler. Lots of stuff and wires.
But maybe if I found a stand alone digital wattmeter I could fasten it to a
dummy load...that's a thought.

Too much to ask for. 0-2000 would be acceptable if it had the 3 ranges.

Anyone know of a product like this?

[Elecraft] Dummy Load with integral digital wattmeter

[ke9uw]

I have recently built a GRPoMeter which has a 16 Watt dummy load with a
digital SWR/Wattmeter in it. It’s great...but only reads up to about 14
Watts.
I would like a similar dummy load meter with a digital meter that reads say
0-10, 0-100, and 0-1000 watts full scale. I like and use the Elecraft 500
watt amp and tuner, so 1000 watts full scale would be perfect..
