[TenTec] OMNI V Low Output With Certain Antennas Question

[Kenneth Stringham]

What are you using to make the power measurements?
Many power meters on the market are not well
calibrated. Are you trying to use it to measure the
peak reading using SSB mode or are you in the CW mode?
Do you have any ALC applied? This could reduce your
output as well.
