W-2 Wattmeter indications

Phillip Buckholdt-2
Hi all

Using my W-2 set to the 200W range and my K-3 set to 100W ATU in bypass and
connected to a dummy load the W2 reads 100W. IF I select AUTO the W2 reads
200W !  I only have the 200 W HF sensor.
    Just wondering if this normal behavior?

Re: W-2 Wattmeter indications

Ed Muns, W0YK
Key down carrier, CW, RTTY, SSB or ?  Also, what version firmware in the W2?

With older firmware and a varying signal, erroneous high readings are
possible.
