WRFH675 Posted August 16, 2022 Report Posted August 16, 2022 If I connected everything correctly, then it appears I have a good SWR, correct? However, it shows only 2.27W. The unit advertises 10W. Is this normal? Is there a simple way to increase this? Quote
0 OffRoaderX Posted August 16, 2022 Report Posted August 16, 2022 it's 10W BEFORE the duplexer, which eats a huge %% of the RF electricities.. I think mine only reads 3W or 4W.. There is no way that I know of to adjust it, and if you do, you are likely to kill the duplexer... TOM47 and WRFH675 2 Quote
0 KAF6045 Posted August 16, 2022 Report Posted August 16, 2022 Mine showed around 4.6W, when piped through an MFJ UHF watt/swr meter and into the mag-mount antenna that came with an MXT-115.. But since I don't have a calibrated source to compare the meter against... Hmm -- that frequency readout shows a 1kHz offset, first channel should be .550 Meter or radio calibration? Quote
0 Flameout Posted August 21, 2022 Report Posted August 21, 2022 I was getting just over 5.7w from mine, and close to 11 when I checked before it went into the duplexer. I'd be a bit upset with that 2.27 Quote
0 SteveShannon Posted August 21, 2022 Report Posted August 21, 2022 In these forums there have been a few of those SW-102s which reported output power incorrectly from the factory. I would check it against a known good meter. Quote

Question
WRFH675
If I connected everything correctly, then it appears I have a good SWR, correct?
However, it shows only 2.27W. The unit advertises 10W. Is this normal? Is there a simple way to increase this?
