I was trying to say it's easy to check so a comma needed to be after the word or I could have said it's easy,
I know on my K3 or Icom 7600 if I set my drive in RTTY to 45 watts (45 watts is what it takes to drive my 2000A to around 1500) key down I will see approx 1500 watts out then push the SSB button to go to SSB and begin talking I will see again approx 1500 watts out...no overshoot or spikes. It doesn't work this way on the 5K ...I set the drive to 45 watts ....key down a carrier to ensure it's 45 watts and yes it is......go to SSB and start talking and wow! overshoot like crazy several times from key to unkey. 1600, 1800 etc KE4WY JIM d Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2011 6:53 PM.

If drive is set to 40 watts Ssb peak setting reaches but never exceeds 40 watts. I am not sure I understand what you are talking about here. What is Easy Ssb Easy experiment in test section set To 40 watts engage two tone & it will be above 40. It may surprise you how much. If using Compression note the difference between CPDR & DX. This sounds perfectly normal. PEP will be 6 dB above the single tone level on two tone testing.
