: The CushCraft literature on the X7 and X9 say that it handles 2000 watts
but
: doesn't say whether that's PEP or continuous. I do a lot of RTTY. I
sent
: an email to them several weeks ago but no response.
:
: Anyone know how these antennas are rated?
:
I got " burned " litteraly using a R-7 running 1 KW on CW & RTTY. The
coils failed but were replaced free of charge by Cuscraft, with a note
saying that they meant PEP and not key-down !
Unless you find specific reference to CW or RTTY power rating from them, it
is safe to assume it is PEP !
Good luck !
