Default Wire wound dummy load...

Never mind, just dropped a so-239 on an old gallon can and wired it
up--seems to work great, but haven't checked the swr on the outside of
the can yet... grin

I need to come up with a dummy load for a 250+ watt xmitter.

IF I take two 100 watt wire wound resistors in parallel (for 50 ohms)
and put them in a can full of silicone oil and feed it though an
L-Match should it work?

Warmest regards,
John
