Strange that any manufacturer should specify DC input, rather than RF
output, as late as the 80's....
When I was working professionally as an RF designer in the 1960's in the
military and commercial radio comms field, our radio regulatory agency
specified RF output for type-approval purposes. We had Bird 43 power meters
traceable to our national standards bureau. Even in the Amateur Service, the
SSB power limit back then was stated as 400W PEP output (as opposed to 100W
DC input to the RF PA for all other modes).

I appreciate Mike's observation re: 200W DC input on the Delta.
Mike is indeed correct. My apology to the list.
