There was a question posted about power level and IMD when
transmitting PSK31. I recent built a pskmeter kit and checked out my
signal. I found that the 5-bar rule of thumb for the K3 is good for
up to about 70 watts. IMD remains below -27db. Above 70 watts drive
must be reduced. But you shouldn't ever use that kind of power on
psk, anyway.
I drive my amp with 25 watts, so I just leave it there and run psk
barefoot. That's plenty of power.
