Should work fine with proportiannally lower output. However, 15 watts
might not be enough to hit the RF PTT in the amp so you ought to hard
switch it.

Since a linear amp is supposed to be "linear", is there any reason that
you have to run 65 to 100 watts into one? What if you used a linear
designed for 65 watt drive and only gave it 15 watts? Does the spectral
purity change? Does the efficiency drop? Does the linearity degrade?
