Icom: icom 718 power output

[Mike303]

My 718 puts out 130 watts on cw key down on 10m- 120 watt on 12 and 15m, 100 watt on 17m, 50 watt on 20m, 30 watt 0n 30m, 15 watt on 40m , 5 watt on 80m. Radio not opened or messed with- done reset 4-5 times - works fine in all other ways.

Are you checking power output while transmitting into a dummy load suitable for 1 through 30 MHz?

Are you using a wattmeter suitable for 1 through 30 MHz?

Have you verified that the DC voltage at the radio is 13.8 volts?
