** I used to see 5w in my Beverage antenna during Tx until I added a
coax-shorting on Tx relay. Another possibility is backto back
hot-carrier rectifiers. These should limit the RF potential on the coax
to around 0.4v=peak. A third solution is to listen to distant a remote
receiver. This not only allows one to monitor one's own signal but it
frequently improves received signal to noise ratio. Many remote
receivers are presently available on the Internet.
