As far as I am concerned, it is QRP if my neighbor's lights don't dim when I
transmit and he lives a half a mile away.

Subject: [Amps] Not OT
Real tubes have handles.
That leaves my 3-500's out
Real amps require 3 phase power
Its not even an option in this remote rural area
Real hams have a dedicated 200A service just for the hamshack
When I moved here and rebuilt the 1830 house the service was 60A. When I
updated to a 200A panel and new wiring the power company told me I didnt
need a new service from the pole, the old one was sufficient.
Real hams use at least 1 1/4" hardline out of necessity.
I use 3/4", 7/8", and 1" CATV hardline since the runs are long and the reels
were free
