Every engineer, worth his pay, which I know, allow at least a 20% excess
on ratings.

50 X 20% = 10 watts

50 + 10 = 60 watts

I'd run the 65 and examine the glass mount now and then. You'll see if
damage begins and switch lower power.

Warm regards,

Obviously the engineers who established the maximum power
specification would not advocate using greater than 50 watts.

1) No engineer would advocate over-clocking computers the way I do.
2) No engineer would advocate pushing rigs and liners (power amps) to
the limits I do.
3) No engineer would advocate doing the mods to equipment I do.
4) No engineer would advocate the antenna experiments I carry out.
6) No engineer would advocate the engine mods to my vette which I have done.
7) No engineer would advocate the levels of exposure to RF I expose
myself too.
8) ...

That's what makes it fun, now doesn't it?

It's unquestionably something which separates fools and their money.

Yes, well, I am still working on a way to take to the grave with me ...
so far, NO PROGRESS!

I wish you better luck ... however, I guess others who will benefit from
the money will be more than grateful ... granting that I will be
unsuccessful in finding a way.
