[Central-Electronics] CE-100V Power

[Gordon]

OK Guys,
     I have the CE-100 putting out Great power on every band.
However, I must change the CW or AM carrier level on each band. ( 
Depending on which Mode I am in)
Isn't there supposed to be pretty close to the same output on each band?
If I choose CW and have, say 100 watts output on 80 meters, shouldn't I 
be able to get each band to be pretty close to the same output without 
re-adjusting?
I must be missing something.
   For one, I do NOT have a sweep generator to do some of the Alignment 
steps.
I have a sig Generator (HP-8640B) along with a lot of other Quality test 
gear.
For example, If I set the 100V for 100 Watts output on 80 meters, it 
will not be enough to get 100 watts out on 40. ( Must turn up the Carrier)
If I set it to 100 watts out on 40, when I go back to 80, it is too much 
output . I have to keep adjusting the Carrier control for each band. I 
don't think that is Normal.
       I did find that when I was complaining that I was showing Watts 
on the meter with out any drive when in TX, That is NORMAL. The Manual 
says so!  LOL
  It should be showing 50-60 Watts ( On the Watts meter) as soon as I 
key it in Non Carrier modes without drive.
I am surprised nobody mentioned that.
So, I am slowly making progress. I just now need to figure out how to 
make each Band fairly even on the output without constantly adjusting 
the "Set and Forget" controls.
Can I do the Alignment without buying a Sweep Generator? There must be a 
way.
