Al, I suspect that the calibration has a larger amount of energy than a SSB digital signal that is only a few 100 hz wide. Is the 800mW better? Perhaps drop...

That's about what I saw before. I think the calibration signal is a sine wave. The double-tone for psk may have a different form factor (peak to rms ratio). ...
