In my experiences, the FCC could not care less about how much power
Hams run as long as they do not cause interference. Example: for
over a year I ran the Plywood Box amplifier on 40m and 80m and
nothing came of it. Perhaps the reason was because I used the extra
10db as a big stick to humiliate jammers, and I seldom used it
otherwise.
