Hi Guys:

I had very reduced average power in SSB - and just discovered only in USB - LSB was fine.
And USB was off frequency by approx. 600 Hz. 

RTFM got me in the right church and pew - and listening on a second receiver did it. From the manual...

"Note: If you’re using a 2.7-kHz 5-pole filter for SSB transmit, you can optionally
fine-tune its FLx FRQ parameter to equalize LSB / USB transmit characteristics.
Monitor your signal on a separate receiver, using headphones."

Tons of punch now on both sidebands and correct frequency for USB. 

73,
