Anyone care to opine on the minimum pcb trace width appropriate (i.e. safe)
to carry 1500 watts between 1.8 and 30 Mhz into an impedance mismatch of
less than 2.5:1?  Assume 2 oz copper thickness.

Almost as useful would be if someone who knows something about RF (since I
know practically nothing, which is a separate subject) can tell me the
maximum current in a wire carrying 1500 watts into a 2.5:1 mismatch.

Thanks!
