[Heathkit] SA-2040/2060 Antenna Tuner wattmeter calibration

[Van K7VS]

I have never seen this before in any of my heathkit antenna tuners that us 
the factory supplied swr bridge that comes aligned and ready for 
installation in the SA-2040/2060 and SA 2500 series but I just picked up 
another very nice SA-2060A that is extra clean inside and out and the only 
problem is the wattmeter when checked against my bird is way way low on 
indicated power output.  In both hi and low power position.  When I tried 
the set/swr proceedure I get the same indication as when just using the two 
meters in "normal" position where the right one shows swr (which appears to 
be accurate) and the left meter power output.  Has anyone run into this 
problem and I suspect I will have to take the swr bridge completely out in 
order to get the forward low and foward high calibration pots?  Am I right 
about that and has anyone had an sucess doing this and recalibrating the 
output power display??  Or is it a real bear! Thanks much.  Van, K7VS
