Default Kenwood TS-140s TX output question.

My question is, how can I drop the power on my TS-140s? I am all cw op
here and seems on cw its either all or nothing, a slight movement of
the rf slider brings it up to over 100 watts and its hard to control
the lower range. I would like to max out at around 50 watts.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Gil

Your TS140S has dirty sliders.

Have you tried tuner cleaner in the works?

I had to do this same thing to mine a couple years ago, it fixed it so I
could at least power down to about 8w.

I have heard of guys even replacing the sliders. I have no idea where you'd
get them though.
