How much power can we run on the OII safely in AM mode?
Thanks,

There is a distinct difference in the monitor sound of AM vs. SSB that 
I
have noted for some time on the "Fix List" on my website.  It sounds 
more
like the sample rates are different with AM getting the short-changed 
by a
few dozen kbps!  I could be wrong about that, but they do sound 
different.
The good news is that the actual on-air AM audio is fabulous and is 
better
than some AM broadcast stations I have heard.
