Mark,
Another thought. Some rigs will exhibit a higher rf
level during the first few ms of key up with carrier
inserted. You can use your inline detector as a source
to feed to a scope if you have access to one and you
will see the actual rf peak levels in real time on the
display. Using a scope to measure the rf envelope
is the only way to get a real peak to peak reading.

By using the scope method you can run 1,499.999
watts and stay legal.
That's meant to be a tongue in cheek remark.
