I'm sure the K3 would be happy to run 100W if you wanted to. It's rated to handle full power key down for 10 minutes and a transmit cycle is only 50 seconds or so. But most people using JT65A on HF seem to run between 20 and 40W. Others prefer to run QRP and so limit themselves to 5W. By the way, if you haven't picked up on this already, do make sure your computer clock is accurate to within a second. The Windows built-in time sync usually isn't good enough. The best software to use for this is NTP for Windows which you can get here: http://www.meinberg.de/english/sw/ntp.htm . ----- Julian, G4ILO.
