I have been doing PSK with 5 watts for several years. WHile many
people report running 10 to 100 watts, 5 seems to get the job
done for me, although I have a long list of stories about, "The
one that got away."
I did a bunch of RTTY at 5 watts in the North American QSP Party
RTTY contest (my first real contest experience). I never lacked
for contacts, although I missed one at the very end because the
other guy could not read me. After about 4 repeats, he went off
with 40 seconds to go and got another contact, so I don't feel
too bad.
Cheers - Bill, AE6JV

I know there is the wattage issue. Is 12 watts going to be enough if I use
the KX3?
