Using a SWAG, and since the sensor isn't complex I'd look there first. Open it
up and look carefully at everything under a strong light. If there is a PC
board, examine both sides. Since it is off by a factor of ten, there may be a
resistive voltage divider that has a resistor that has changed value, or a
ground reference has been blown open. Another possibility is an open
semiconductor. Good luck!

Indeed it is. He ran a fine biz for years. >
Mine is the smaller 2 sensor system for 6m/HF SO2R (3kW?)_.
I looked at his system when it first came out, and quickly decided that it
wasn't enough better than the cheap stuff that I had, and the N8LP system was
far superior. I didn't have the money for it right away, but when one came up
used when a member of our contest club went SK, I bought it. It had a single
sensor, I added a second, and had Larry calibrate them. If you have difficulty
repairing your unit, I'd jump on Larry's meter.
