I agree, one needs to be careful, with the input power in the early experiment (and perhaps all of them?). The graph went up and down quite a bit, so one should really do a separate calculation for each segment then add them all up. I don't think fraud is involved, but it's easy to be over optimistic, and make statements that are not detailed enough and lead to false conclusions. Yet another reason why the output power should be measured separately, rather than just relying on calculations. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/Project.html
