I agree completely with Gary's comment. I'd back it down to a nice, clean 80-90 watts, and spend my time looking after the new ops. 73, Steve NN4X On 6/27/08, Gary D Krause <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why would you want to run it at 120 watts? I'm just curious. If it is a > concern, why not

Fern, I own several linear and it was really a simple question. I was unaware the radio wasn't rated to run at 120W. Now I know.73, MackWB4MAK > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; elecraft@mailman.qth.net> > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 for Field Day at 120W&g
