I have a Tec Tec Auto Coupler that is turned off and a Ten Tec Hercules II
at full power. The SWR bridges in side the equipment reads well over SWR
over 3:1 on certain bands while my BIRD Watt meter read 2:1.

ALL SWR meters is at 1:1 into a dummy load so that rules out the BIRD is
whacked.

This problem seams to mainly happen on 160M however I have seen it do this
on different bands with other antennas in the past.

Are the diodes going into saturation?  I am going BANNAS with this issue.
