Sorry, Wayne.  It's not fixed.  Although the power adjusts now it still
comes up more than 1 dB low (65 to 75 Watts for 110W commanded) and
takes more than five seconds to reach set output.   These tests in
FSK_D.  For comparison, in CW power output comes up at more than 90%
of the commanded level and reaches full output in 1 second or less.

I've performed wattmeter and power calibration - they have little
if any impact on the issue.

73,

    ... Joe, W4TV
