Default Dentron MLA-2500 Question

First, power you read on RF power meters is RMS power. Peak envelope
power is the peak value of short term RMS power, average power is the
short term average of RMS power. This is why for CW PEP and average
power is the same, while for SSB and AM it is not.

If you sustitute the word AVARAGE in place of RMS this will be
correct. There is no such thing as RMS power. :)
