Hi Jerry:
Yes, I do run a amp. most of the time because I'm on two nets that
cover
the entire U.S. 6 days a week. My PEP is running 400 to 450 Watts. But is
does not bother my ICOM IC-718 which I use as a standby rig nor did it
bother my JRC JST-145 which I gave up for the Jupiter. I have no RFI in
phones, TV, computer, audio or my NRD-545DSP receiver sitting next to the
Jupiter and amp.
