Hello Dennis - I had the same issue. Check on a dummy load first as
suggested. My problem was the PIN diodes (D2 and D3) on the low pass
filter board and U-1 on the 9 Mhz board. Not too bad a job to
change...my first attempt at surface mount IC's and I did OK !!

Well, maybe not a metering issue as the subject suggests, but the FWD power
indication reads considerably low on transmit. All other meter functions
appear normal. With the OMNI RF output set at 100W on a Bird watt
meter the FWD meter on the OMNI jumps to 25W, then decays down to 10W over
a couple seconds time.
Any ideas? I haven't looked the schematic yet ... thought I'd collect ideas
from the masses first.
Dennis, K7FL
