Cute, Ken.
My own experience (at M-M, certainly not at home) has been trying to coax
the power from (usually) a slow rag chewing South American multiplier. To
start with, he is flabbergasted. He never got so many LOUD answers to a
simple CQ on 15M or 10M before!

Well, you heard him -- he said 73 watts, and that's what goes in the log.
(BTW, I am NOT complaining about his linguistic skills. He speaks English
a lot better than I speak Spanish. And I appreciate his efforts at making
QSOs.)
And 73 to you, OM
