[Elecraft] KPA 100 Power Calibration SWR Question

I have just completed the Power Calibration (R26 andf R27) on my KPA100. The SWR shows 1.0-1 on 40 and 80M, but then goes up from there. It is 1.5-1 on 10m and power output as indicated on my external power meter shows power declining as the SWR is increasing. I am using an MJF 264 dummy

Re: [Elecraft] KPA 100 Power Calibration SWR Question

It's possible that those indications are accurate and related, but not necessarily so. Most wattmeters show total forward (including reflected) power, so if the reflected power goes up as the incident power goes down, the total remains the same. If your external wattmeter shows actual
