I have powered both the 5000 and 3000 from 11V (fully discharged lead-acid battery) to see how they would perform. They operated normally but would not produce rated power out. OTOH, the difference between 75W and 100W at the receiver is, uh, nothing. ;-) -- 73 de Brian, WB6RQN/J79BPL _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
