The difference between my lowest 20m yagi (19m) and the highest alone (44m)
usually is already 10db at the east cost and 15db to the mid west.
With 1W out from my SDR1000 my signal is at N2II is the same as other
Germans with 1KW and Tribanders when I use use all 3 yagis.
So difference in antennas matters much more then power levels.
Of course, power is a big advantage if antennas AND locations are leveled

Add stacked yagis on 200' towers and 4 Square Arrays and it's a HUGE
difference...
