 From my measurements, the IMD of both the K3 100W PA and the 10W amp 
improve by around 10 dB at 1/4 power. In my shack running the K3 at 20 ~ 
25 Watts works very well into an Acom 1000 linear for the UK power limit 
of 400 Watts.

"Squeezing higher power out degrades the IMD."

SO... The "10 watt" amp feeds the 100 w PA? Does it get fed with 10 watts
or 12 watts? What does that mean to the IMD of the 100 w PA by the cause of
the degraded IMD being fed into the PA?
