With all the comments on Loads,,, put them in a container and add mineral
oil
would really boost their rating ,, just allow for some venting

Hi Jim es all,
here are two dummy loads in use; one is a bulb 110V/DC500W, Z 35 Ohm
on 136kHz
(bridge measurement) and the other is made of four hollow ceramic
resistors
200 Ohm/60W each, makes 200W only. but blowing air through the
resistors
(see attachment) makes a lukewarm 300W dummy on 136kHz (0,4uH only).
I tried 800W. A peace of paper above the dummy caught fire within 10
sec.
regards
