[1000mp] QST Product Reviews whitewash

[Jeffrey Pawlan]

Even if we take the QST whitewash method of specing IMD relative to PEP output
which makes it appear as 6dB better:

Connect your transceiver into a linear amplifier, even incorrectly assuming
that the linear is absolutely perfect and causes no additional IMD:

Power output = +62dBm
3rd order products down 25dB

Power level of 3rd order products = +37dBm  which is 5 watts into the antenna

Since I have previously worked the Maldives with 2 watts on SSB, I can tell you
that 5 watts of intermods will be interference to many many hams all over the world.
