I'm unsure if this is happening to anyone else or only me. When i TX, it usually get about 54w of power output with an SWR of about 1.51:1. I'm running Expert SDR2 version 1.3.1 Update 11.

Klaus, this doesn't seem normal!!! Is there a cure for this or is this the expected output? I feel like i paid for a radio to TX with 100w but half the power and full price?

What version is your radio a Pro or a DX ?
As Klaus says you are doing well to get that out of a Pro. Most I manage is about 17w.

I should have stated what version i have. I have the SunSDR2 DX. The meter on the software says it's putting out 100w, but my LP-100A only says 50-60w.

No problem, people would have assumed you had a Pro as that is the section you have posted the question in.
Unfortunately I have no experience with the DX model so can't offer any further assistance.
It may be worth re asking in the DX section.

Either way good luck in finding yhe solution.
