Ron, here's what the K2 power meter says (listed after what the =
wattmeter says):

3700MHz   -   15 watts   -   15.0
7100MHz   -   15 watts   -   14.9
10100MHz -   14 watts   -   14.4
14100MHz -   13 watts   -   14.4
18113MHz -   13 watts   -   13.7
21200MHz -   11 watts   -   11.5
24950MHz -   9.5 watts   -   9.4
28350MHz -   8 watts      -   7.9

This is on a gel cel reading 11.9 at the battery and 11.4vdc on the K2 =
meter.

What's up?

No, that's not "normal". While the power does drop off on the higher =
bands,
it should be at least 10 watts on the lowest band (usually 10 meters).=20

What does the K2 say it is making in RF output into your dummy load?=20
