I wonder if anyone else is seeing this on their Omni VI or is this just mine?

On CW, I get what looks like full power output on all the metering I have 
available at my station: Omni VI FWD meter, Daiwa CN720B SWR/Wattmeter 
and an AEA Econo-Tuner (with SWR/Wattmeter).

On SSB, I get what looks like full power output on the Omni VI 
FWD meter--at least it looks like full power output; it seems to just about
pin the meter on voice peaks.  However, my Daiwa and AEA wattmeters show
very low output power (not peaking over 20 watts).  Now, I know about damped
meter movements and if it were that, then shouldn't I see something similar on
CW?  I don't.  

Any ideas?  

Thanks,
