But that's still only a fraction of 1 dB gain in signal - not detectable on
most S-meters. 

RF power is one place where more yields diminishing results. The increased
signal at a receiver when going from 10W to 100 watts output is exactly the
same as the difference between 100 and 1000 watts, but that extra 900 watts
costs a lot more to produce than the 90 watts.

What if he's running about 5kw out? This would make sense. 10% increase in
input gives you a 10% increase in output power.
