PSK is a low power mode- 40-45 watts is overkill to say the least - 20-25 is even strong. QRPers run 5 watts or less quite successfully with PSK.

Normally I stay at 40-45 w....I feel (or better I hope) that's ok Many thanks in advance 73 de Giorgio -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-Observations-Digital-Modes-and-S SB-tp5976035p5982666.html Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
