Frank, Before you consider higher power, get the antenna outside. Even 100 watts to an attic antenna can be problematic in some cases.
If you have no choice for the antenna, then go for the KPA100 but start out at lower power levels to see what happens, devices plugged into the house wiring often do not like the presence of RF and do crazy things, and you can bet that the house wiring will pick up RF from the antenna. 73, Don W3FPR On 3/19/2011 8:01 PM, Frank MacDonell wrote: > Maybe the cards are stacked against me, but I would like to go for the six > meter band ssb.
