From: (Scott in Baltimore) There is no reason
for a 100 Watt linear to NOT DO 100 watts dead key am with 100%
modulation... same goes with all other amps or greater/lesser ratings.

Explain to me how you can do 100 watts

deadkey out of a 100 watt amp and get 400

watt peak-to-peak swing out of it?

Huh? He said 100 watts, not 400 and he didn't mention swing at all.

Jay is right about the power end of it. If an

amp is not rated anything other than "100

watts", it would be smart to assume it is 100

watts output *maximum*.


Exactly.

That means 100 watts on FM or CW or any

digital mode, but ssb would be 100 watts pep

as would AM. In the case of AM, that means a
25 watt carrier (to end up with 100 watts pep).

On AM, how many bird watts will the bird watts swing from 100 bird watts
dead key carrier? g


............yeah, what he said.
