Antenna gain is already factored into the EIRP of the station (and that
100,000 watts is EIRP, not actual power. Most 100KW plants actually run
about 25-27KW into a gain antenna. Saves power consumption and they still
get the equivalent range of a full 100KW transmitter.


If I'd meant effective radiated power, I'd have mentioned it; I am
talking 250KW right off the plates of the finals ...
