First let me apologize for sending out the first message without a subject. My mistake.
I appreciate all the responses to my questions. While Grants information below sounds reasonable and may well be correct I would like to see something in the manual about how the AM power setting functions. It does seem unusual that I set 25 watts with AM mode selected and received a 56 report from 1200 miles away. That would mean that slightly over six watts was actually transmitted. Specifications of many other radio's speak of 25-40 watts for AM. The specifications and owners manual for the K3 does not address the details of AM power. And, I might add the same for FM. I would like to see Elecraft staff address this so there is no misunderstanding. CU in the Colorado QSO Party on September 4th, 2010.
