Ken, as I read the rules, we are only allowed to run 375 watts carrier.


this is wrong. There is -no- maximum carrier limit. The only maximum power limit imposed on
Ham Radio operators is 1,500W PEP output, regardless of mode.

1,500W PEP output on AM, -would- be 375w *if* you modulate that carrier with a sine-wave.

We don't talk in sine-waves.

Don Chester/K4KYV, Bacon/WA3WDR and John Coleman/WA5BXO collaborated on this
very subject. ALL AM'ers should read this page, and read it again and when you're done, read it again.
