[P3TXMON] 200W sensor at higher power levels

[alorona]

Is the P3 TX MON 200 W sensor damaged by application of power levels higher than 200 W?


Thank you,

Its probably OK for short durations at up to about 350W.

If you hit it with 1500w it might survive, but that will cause a couple of low
power resistors to dissipate up to 35W, so they might be in danger of failing.

Note that the 2000W coupler is good down to 1W and is what I use for all my
operating, QRO or QRP. The 200W coupler is good down well below a watt, for
those who like to go even lower..
