My field rig is an FT-817, with MFJ-971 tuner. Antenna is a 40M
extended double zepp Slinky with 30 ft of 300 ohm twinlead.

On 60M, I easily tune SWR down to 1.0. Power shows a full 5 watts on
FM when I test.

Am I radiating almost everything the radio is putting out? Or could I
still be having big losses in the tuner? How can I test it?
