Hello all,

As I recall, in a 50 ohm system, 1500 watts is about 400 volts and about 6 amps. Could someone give me an approximation of what I could expect at 2:1 and 3:1 SWR?

Or, direct me to a formula.

I am looking at some gas discharge devices to help me mitigate lightning issues and damage. I have been using low voltage ones for years with low voltage DC control lines and such, and now I'd like to try and apply them to the coax lines.
