Well, sure, but I'm certainly not expecting anything anywhere near 
that... I get 100 watts carrier out of my DX-100 so 12 db would be 
1600 watts carrier or 6400 watts PEP, which would be slightly illegal 
even if it wasn't well beyond the capabilities of any amp I'm 
considering... 375 watts carrier is a bit less than 6 db which is one 
"S" unit, which would be about the minimum I'd consider worthwhile.

It's really hard to imagine only being able to get 150-200 watts 
carrier out of a Warrior but never having used one I'll certainly 
defer to those who have... like I said in another email I wouldn't 
mind rebuilding the power supply to better capacity if I can be 
confident that the tubes would take it.
