[1000mp] MKV power???

[Blake M. Meinecke]

I saw this posted today on the e-ham, an excerpt from a recent MKV review
(3/28).....

>>>>I have the radio putting out 300 watts on all bands & it is actually
capable of nearly 400 watts on most bands (this is why it has a 400 watt
meter display). I spoke with a friend at Yaesu & he said they are safe at
higher powers. (I am not endorsing this, just relaying my experience). At
300 watts, I rarely use amp & get the same excellent audio reports.<<<<

I know, I know....  DANGER-PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK

I was just curious if anyone else on the list had heard of or done this ??
Just struck my curiosity-
