Mike,
It might be doable to use a watt meter that either
looks at RMS carrier power, and PEP power by the flick
of a switch. Since on AM the PEP at 100% plus
modulation is ideally 4 times carrier power, the watt
meter will show that, say for a 100 watt carrier, you
should get 400 watts PEP.

Mike,
I have two Ameritron AL-1200's and one AL-1500. I like the AL-1200's better
as they provide a good match for the 22-25 watt level driver. With 22 watts
of carrier, the AL-1200 will put out 375 watts of carrier with 1500 watts
PEP with a real nice scope pattern.
The Al-1500 needs only
I've been reading this AM linear thread with great interest.
I currently run a TS570 which gives me no more than 25 watts of carrier,
plus a bit more on modulation peaks. I have an unmodified DX60 that I intend
to put back in service later this summer after a shack painting project is
finished.
