And there is little difference in signal strength, might actually be stronger 
as copy is better and less signal wasted by eliminating IMD, etc.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Boost power supplies for RF amps

For the rigs running off of 12 (13.8) Vdc, how about simply not running the rig 
"all knobs full right"? 

Reducing the power by 25% will improve IMD performance at lower voltages, yet 
that power difference is virtually impossible to detect on the H.F.
bands.
