Why can't I get full power from my 6400?

Whenever I try to set the RF Power on my 6400, it won't go beyond 46W. If I slide to 100W, it immediately goes back to 46W. I've tried resetting the permitted power in the band settings, but it makes no difference.

This true for both SmartSDR and SmartSDR for Mac.

EDIT The SWR is 1.3:1

In SmartSDR go to settings/Radio Setup/Transmit tab and make sure max power is set to 100 watts. Also make sure you don't have any 3rd party software resdtricting the radio's max power.
