Thanks, I'll give that a shot. For some reason, I don't get any output on CW when hitting PTT. Have to dig into that a little more.
I did do a CPU reset when I got it and I've been digging through the manual, but haven't found anything yet.

You won't get any output with PTT. Set the radio to RTTY. Now key PTT.
Typically with SSB voice you will only read about 40-50 watts with the radio set to 100 w. The meter is just not fast enough to
read peak. In fact, some meters will only read about 25-30 watts, and nothing wrong with either the radio or meter. Just the
way it is.
You should be LSB for 160 meters, 80 m and 40 m. USB for 20 m and higher.
Radio should be set to AM for the AM broadcast band.
Dunno what's with RIT for now, but do a reset. ALWAYS do a reset, whether it is a new from factory radio or used but new to you.
