Personally, I'd go up to 300 watts which would give
you a 10dB improvement. That much WILL be noticeable.
Also you won't be pushing everything to the maximum
it's capable of. Gives you a bit of a safety margin.
But then again, the FCC rules state something about
[...the minimum power necessary for communications...]
