I should have mentioned I'm well aware of the procedure shown at
http://www.tentecwiki.org/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=s-meter_565.pdf   - I am
suggesting that this procedure is incomplete.  When I set the meter to read
100W when transmitting 100W and then follow that procedure, I end up
reading s5 on a 50uV s9 signal.

There was a thread 3 years ago at
http://lists.contesting.com/_tentec/2012-01/msg00014.html  that is speaking
of this matter but I don't understand the method alluded to so was asking
if anybody know.
