I am wondering if anyone else is noting a difference in reflected power with the meter in the T position and the A position. When tuning with a steady carrier,...
How much forward power? Reflected power is calculated from forward power and rho... it is not measured directly. In the LP-100, the parameters that are...
My LP-100 shows decreasing power with higher frequency. For example, on Mark V Field, the max power measured with a dummy load is 123W on 160, 116 W on 20m,...
I would strip the setup back to just the rig, LP-100 and dummy load and try it. Make sure the internal antenna tuner in the rig is turned off or bypassed...
What you are seeing is not uncommon - most of the HF rigs have maximum power output on the lower bands and somewhat lower than the rated power on the higher...
I just measured my FT-1000MP Mk V Field. Maximum power output is on 80 meters - 106W and minimum power is on 10 meters - 92W. On 20 and 160 meters the maximum...
Does anyone have suggestions on a good common mode filter to clean up my shack from all the currents flowing around (Larry was most helpful in suggesting this...

Thanks! excellent 'meaty' booklet... lots to think of! Boy 'choke baluns' 'choke ununs' etc are super difficult to find.. and the 'Fair-Rite' toroids and...
LOL! There is a new version out there, Andrey, version 1.1.73, but the only change is the addition of the 10KW coupler option in setup. I haven't posted it yet...

Hey Larry, In the latest version, (1.1.72) that anoying situation where the SWR reading in the "W" mode is ALSO peak and hold, is back. I would like to be...
I've had that problem for a while here also... Of course its just hard to justify upgrading when what you have works just fine for your applications. [...I...

It's on the Update page now. In general, all firmware, released or otherwise, resides in the Files directory of my website. I have been playing a bit with the...
Hello all, A setup option would be good. The thing about being limited to the bar graph is that I am often just doing a minor touch up of the antenna tunner...
Maybe the response of the SWR bargraph could also be changed to something different... like the reverse of the Return Loss bargraph, which is quite useful for...
That could be a solution. As a mater of fact, I often switch to the return loss mode to adjust for absolute minimum SWR. I agree with you that there is no...
It's been a while since I have played with it, but if I recall correctly, when SWR is relatively high, like 2:1, the average reading will bounce around in SSB...
My meter's Power Output Bargraph disappears after approximately 110 watts no matter what the settings are in the range modes. The numeric display shows the...
Hi Jim. Please send me your settings for all the bargraph and range related setup parameters, and tell me what modes (w,W,T) where you see this behavior. Also,...
