Another point to consider...
From the looks of Rinaldo's letter, the ARRL may be considering petetioning
the FCC for specific bandwidth limits of 3 kc for SSB and 6 kc for AM.
I see a couple of problems with that idea, besides the fact that it would
limit phone signals to telephone-like
The 3dB bandwidth spec may not be such a big deal. As a QRO fan of homebrew
plate modulation and HiFi... let me explain: When the FCC (or anyone for
that matter) specifies a bandwidth, the bandwidth attenuation by definition
are the -3 dB points, usually with no mention of any other attenuation

Hi Brian,
It's worse than you think!
In the last few years, a new type of CB activity has become very popular -
the Keydown Superbowl.
A group, or club of CB'ers will organize a meet where the participants get

Levels into the 10s of KW are the NORM at these events.

I personal know many of the brothers on superbowl 6 , 3cx1A7 , are
baby amps !! The highest output mobile that I know of (personally saw it
know the owner) does 50 kilowatt plus uses 8 huge alternators on the
engine with Peter Dahl transformers 20 , 30 kilowatt mobile are
common
No wonder those guys talk the way they do... with all that RF cooking their
brains! Not to mention the nearby unknowing cars. They should be arrested.

In keeping with the ongoing CB thread, take a look at item number 1376321498
on the Bay. This guy sells these by the sack. Also go to his other auctions.
Same stuff only higher power. Please note that he gives no locations, and has
blocked his feedback. Why do you suppose that is
Nice looking amps ... just bought one for my mobile !!
Thanks john
