Yeh, I've always wondered about the accuracy of those numbers. They
translate into 1,622 watts for the transmit dynamotor load, versus 2,415
V-A for the same load on 115VAC. And that tuning load? 4,255 VA seems
excessive compared with the dynamotor option of 1,237 watts. And this
ignores the AC supply DC component of 18-20 amperes. Something does not
compute.
