I built a K1 four band about one and a half years ago.
Today, for the first time, I fired it up on 15 meters.
I loaded it into my 40 mtr. dipole by way of a T1 external antenna tuner.
With five watts selected in the K1 menu I have an indication of two watts output on a WM2 wattmeter.
When I increase output power on the K1 to five watts on the wattmeter the LCD screen on the K1 reads ten "bars".
The T1 gives a good SWR ... 1.3:1 or so.
Is this normal for the K1?

Bud,
