We always need a good 50-Ohm dummy load. Here is a cheap build using a Chinese 250W resistor from Ebay. I will later incorporate an RF probe, also mentioned here. The case is a Hammond 1550Q cast aluminum, which will not dissipate 250W. You would need a heat-sink for anything more than 30W probably... Resistor: Search for "RFP 250N50."
