Which was actually less, i think, than its CW output, as A2-A3 was by suppressor
modulation which peaks at the previous CW level, yes?
Now the second part, i thought i'd been told, and just recently, that A2 could
( maybe: sometimes? ) exceed A1 even, under certain cirumstances. IF the
A2 was generated by a plate modulator i could moreso see how this could be.
However, that wasn't the case with most mil portable equipment. Hmmm...
so maybe that quote only referred to audible whine at the transmit site.
That quote has its problems, but at least it does thru the smoke, identify
the TBW and TBX. -Hue Miller
