@Tikigod:

Years ago, a company known as 'Heathkit' used to sell amateur radio equipment--one of the many items was a dummy-load. It had an rf connector on the top lid of a gallon can of mineral oil attached to a very large resistor immersed in the oil.

You'd attach your transmitter to it and blast away while you made PWR up adjustments.

cheers,
