So it works into the the dummy load, next steps?

Hi Thomas,

Add a choke at the load (the antenna). Foldback of power, even in the
face of 1:1 SWR, is suggestive of poor transmission line decoupling.
One test is to vary the length of the line. If the SWR changes, this
is a certain indicator of the problem.
