[Elecraft] [KX3 amp] 100/50

[Phillip Nichols]

The issue is regarding setting a MAXIMUM output limit. for Legal or 
Safety reasons!

In both cases - where accidental QRO could be consequential... Legally 
or health-wise.

In my case, I limit max power for my children's sake! In JA and UK's 
cases - there was a 50w Legal upper limit.
