Jan 28, 2018 at 17:58 comment added Marcus Müller well, if my scratching-my-head calculation isn't totally off, then at at 500W you're dealing with RMS voltages of more than 150V over a 50Ω load, and that's 1.4 times less than the peak-to-peak voltage, not to mention mismatches leading to higher voltages. So, what does that box look like on the inside? Is it made for such voltages (or powers), given the SWR you see (at lower powers)?
