Actually, now that you say that, I agree. I wonder if
there would be an easy way to make a power-pick-off tap
so one could use the OHR QRP wattmeter for QRO? Someone
on the List has mentioned several times about adding=20
a circuit to the meter to do this but you could also
add a loop out to the meter and back if it were designed
into the dummy load.=20
