Subject: [Amps] How big is yours?
This "Power" thread sounds more like a bunch of high school boys with their
rulers....Antenna's and operating skills are just as important, if not more so,
than output power...Grow up!

## Once u are maxed out for ants.....esp on postage sized city lots, you have
no options left, except to crank up the po.
100 w into an inverted vee up 80 feet.... on 75m puts u nowhere....fast.
Its the 160-80-40-30m bands where some more
PO helps. Nobody I know screws with 100 w anymore. We cant hear you. Come
back when you either put up a bigger ant,
or get an anp. The noise floor is rising these days. Its not like what it
used to be.
