Unfortunately, a power limit is much like a speed limit on the highway; I'm good unless I get caught.
Ever since I've been a Ham there are others like that. In the west in the 1950s we called them "California Kilowatts" who would brag about putting out 5 or 10 kW or more on the Ham bands. Once in a while the FCC would catch up with one. It was always good entertainment to read about it. For the rest of us, we learned that complaining "Why are you picking on me? Other kids did the same thing!" was not an excuse when we were small children. But not everyone learned the lesson. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bob Nielsen Sent: Sunday, April 23, 2017 5:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 additional info What a novel thought.
