rouggy e0cefb5c41 fix: the Yaesu power meter is not linear — calibrate it on three points
One point could not reveal the curve. Scaling 207 = 100 W straight down read
30 W where the radio showed 10, and 75 where it showed 50 — wrong everywhere
except at the single point it was fitted to.

Three readings taken against the rig's own display give the shape:

  raw  62 → 10 W
  raw 155 → 50 W
  raw 207 → 100 W

Interpolating between them reproduces the radio exactly at those points and stays
close in between. I did not fit a formula: three samples can be made to support
several curves, and the operator can check a table against their own meter.

Above the top the last segment's slope continues rather than clamping, so a rig
driving an amplifier does not sit pinned at 100 W. A test pins the measured pairs
and the monotonicity, so a later change that breaks them fails against the radio
rather than against taste.
