[Elecraft] High Accuracy Wattmeter

Hi All,
I need a high accuracy wattmeter for reading power from 1 to 10 watts into
a 50 ohm load with a precision of 0.05 watts or less over the entire
scale. I tried a RF probe and a DVM, but the voltage is all over the
place. I have a scope, but reading that is like reading a meter. If I set
the K2 control, it drifts up pretty much. Anyone know of any circuits off
hand that will do this? How about a DVM connected to my OHR WM1? I can
accurately calibrate the voltage reading using a service instrument, but I
can't use that for the power reading unless the power is going to the
instrument which it isn't.
TNX for your thoughts.
