The problem is a ham linear will not deliver 1000 watts carrier

PEP on AM is at least 4X carrier.

The current power limit for AM is 1500 watts PEP. This
means a carrier output of 375 watts. Easily obtainable
with the proper linear amp.

My point was, forget 10 or 20 dB improvement over a 40 signal.
