Jim and the group, We have the TKR-850 ver. 2 running at 40 watts in the Com van and feeding a DB 408 using TX/RX station duplexer works fine. In the same rack is a TKR-750 (147) and a Maggiore R-1 (222) they all work just fine and do not bother each outer at all. Why would you have to run the TKR-850 on low power? 73 Russ, W3CH
