  I haven't been too happy with the power output
of my K2, but I didn't know if my vintage 1979
Heathkit power meter is reading low.
  Today, I used an oscilloscope and measured
70.4 Volts peak to peak at 1.817 MHz into a
50 ohm dummy load with the meter indicating just
under 10 Watts.
  I trust the calibration of the 'scope more than
the meter.
  That 70.4 Volts peak to peak is 12.4 Watts;
my Heathkit meter is reading low.
