I have to agree with Rich here.

In the CB Radio shootout scene, typical 10 second keydowns I have repeatedly 
put a 3CX3000 run WAY over ratings into 213...  Typical about 18Kw (high 
plate volts, and WAY too much drive).

As well as a 4CX5000.

But, try to do normal talking on it, and you will be buying new cable all 
the time...


Hope this helps.
