According to EZNEC, a 1/2 wave dipole up 1/2 wavelength has a gain of 7.76 dbi
at 27 degrees elevation. Most of this is due to ground reflection. My vertical
has a
gain of 0.72 dbi. So I can run 7db more power (500 watts)!!!

“Kpa500 on 60 is illegal unless you have a *measured and
documented* VERY lossy antenna that would reduce the effective radiated
power to the same as 100 watts on a dipole. The simple 99 percent answer is
that on 60m SHUT OFF the Kpa500 and run 100 watts barefoot.”
