Anyone know what are the average watts and what are the peak watts?** A: I don't know what the peak envelope power handling capability is but I presume they mean dead key power. Mine will easily handle the 50 watt GMRS radio I have. Short bursts to check power and swr at 50 watts seems fine. It doesn't even get warm **Q: Why is the swr showing on the surecom meter with this dummy load 1.7? why that high considering the swr is 1.2 on my antenna on the same frq** A: If you are using a jumper it could be the jumper. Check the dummy load with a ohm meter. It should read 50 ohms. In a perfect situation most dummy loads would read perfect swr of 1:1. But they are really only used for testing power anyway. **Q: When using this dummy load to test cb radio 27mhz what is the swr at 27mhz?** A: I did not check it specifically on the CB frequencies but at 144Mhz and 440Mhz it was less then the specified 1.2 to 1 VSWR. If you are seeing more than that I would suspect a defective dummy load or a problem with the radio or cables. **Q: Can it be used with a baofeng bf-f8hp handheld radio?** A: Yes, but you would need an adapter to get from the antenna connector on the radio to the connector on the Dummy Load. I believe the baofeng you are referring to had an SMA connector so you would need an adapter to get from there to the PL259 on the Dummy Load. ## Frequently Bought Together - XRDS-RF 50W PL259 UHF Male Plug RF Dummy Load, 50 Ohm - Mcbazel Surecom SW-102 Digital VHF/UHF 125-525Mhz Antenna Power & SWR Meter - Superbat UHF Male PL-259 to UHF Male PL-259 Low Loss Digital Coax UHF Jumper Cable (2ft RG58) for HAM & CB Radio,Antenna Analyzer,Dummy Load,SWR Meter --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/278100685-dummy-load](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/278100685-dummy-load) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
