The same argument goes for any 3:1 power ratio, but Ham radio is about having fun and if someone has more fun with QRO within legal limits, why not?
In the 1960's I added a new final to a homebrew CW rig and went from 100 mW out to a full 1 Watt as soon as a suitable transistor became affordable. By comparison that was real QRO! Years later I happily upgraded my K2 from a 10 watt rig to a 100 watt rig when the KPA100 became available. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dean L Sent: Friday, December 30, 2016 10:28 AM To: Elecraft Mail List Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Please do a KPA1500 Fred 500w 》1500 w -----It's less than an S-unit increase in signal and makes your power meter spin fast.
