Zoltan,
Unfortunately as my friend S56A said - OM Power OM3500 PAs have became a norm
for quite a number of contesters in Europe and elsewhere :-(.
Other wide spread option, at least in Europe, are "R-140" Russian military
stn PAs where GU43b was replaced with GU78 giving out 4 KW instead of 1.3 Kw.
In todays situation stations using 1500 W must be reclassified in HP-LP (less
high power ) category :-).
73, Wally LZ2CJ
Is it time to reevaluate CQWW Scoring Rules?

I have to add the follow factor(s) for this 'clever' topic:
* In HP cathegory need to difference between powers (somewhere the power
limit is 400 Watts - this is big handicap in 1500 Watts cathegory...sri, I
mean OM-Power 4000 Watts cathegory... :)
Bonus steps (by 500 Watts) would be:
DX QSO with 500 W: 3 x 1.2 points
