Depends on the duty cycle of your voice. These radios have no speech processing or compression in them at all, so that could be about right. What can you "whistle it up" to? The only way to be sure is to look at the output on a scope. With my voice, I typically see 20-30 watts on voice peaks with no processing for 100 watts PEP output on any unprocessed radio. 73 -Jim -- TR7/RV7, TR6/RV6, T4XC/R4C, L4B, NCL2000, SB104A, R390A, GT550A/RV550A - all vintage, all the time! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [email protected] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
