Correction: At 100 percent modulation, AM Operators are are permitted
375 watts of Carrier Power, not 250. Here's a link to a May 1995 QST
article that addresses the subject.

The ones who lost out on this rule change were the AM operators. They
had been allowed to run 1000 Watts DC input power, netting perhaps 500
Watts out. When the Commission change the rules to specify that Power
was to be measured as the Actual Output Power, they set the maximum
Amateur Output Power as 1500 Watts PEP. This meant that the AM operators
had to Reduce their Carrier Power to 250 Watts to comply with the new rule.
