In the data I have, only the FJ has IMD data in the specs - but it's at
either 100 or 250W out, even if that's average power it's less than the
tube is capable of. It reminds me a lot of the ratings I'm used to with
semiconductors where generic parts are respecified at lower power in
order to get linearity for specific applications. I stress it's just my
guess, and I'm wide open to correction.
