I agree. The users would not even notice if you cut the power in half.
One 2 meter repeater we took over was running on the 10 watt exciter
with the amp bypassed for I don't know how long. The caretaker before
we got it bypassed the amp because of desense or intermod or self
oscillation
More likely he had the radio programmed wrong.

His antenna could be in a null. It happens, as Murphy is a ham.

Hi John.
Sometimes you might not want to tel the others what you do to the repeater,
then they cannot complain about any adjustments that you make.

In that spirit. Going from 80 to 100 watts is 0.97 db better. That's probably
not an improvement your users will notice. When one considers what a pain it is
when the PA dies, it might not be worth it. Just my 2 cents but I think you're
better off leaving the amp at 80 watts.

Hi,
70 watts out sounds OK. Duplexer's usually have about a 1 - 2db loss
depends how they are set up, size of cavities etc and the model type.
Duplexer loss = 10log(Pin/Pout) Duplexer Loss = 10Log(70/100)=
-1.54dB.
