Actually, I think that is a very bad idea. There are many times when 100w
just won't cut it. The problem - as has been alluded to by several other
posters - is behavioral, not technical.

If you want a technical solution, then make it illegal to ever transmit a
signal that is more than, say, 12 db above ambient noise on the receiving
end. Regardless of power or antenna. Impossible to enforce? Sure. So is an
arbitrary power limit.

I am curious why so many anti-power, anti-amp people participate in an
amplifier mailing list.
