Keep in mind -142dbc is a relative number, not an absolute value.  So it 
doesn't matter
if it is on a 10 watt, 100 watt or legal limit transmitter it's still -142 db 
below the carrier
(in a 1 Hz bandwidth if I understand correctly).
And those are the kind of numbers one normally expects to see out at 10 KHz
separation and beyond, not at 2 KHz.
Wayne does it again !  Bingo !
