PS I believe the BL-2 is rated at 150 watts .... so running at 125W is already at the limit .... even when it is placed in the ideal point in the circuit ... (50 ohms resistive). Place it in a point in the circuit where the resistance varies up or down from the ideal of 50 ohms and then make it complex with added reactance and the unit could make like a toaster element. Of course if you operate QRP you will be just fine as long as you tolerate the RF power loss in the balun. Just imagine trying to make the circuit work at 1KW. Nothing like power to illustrate weakness.
