A non sequitur. One minute you seem think it matters (in terms of
"amount of illegality") what the "S Meter increase" is. Now you are
saying it's the actual output power that matters.
I say have all the fun you want. It seems you would only ever hurt
yourself and that's all I ask from anyone's crazy hobby.
Comparing the "engineering" in a "key-down" amp to a commercial
communications amp is a bit like comparing a dragster to a production
Porsche. I know which one I'd rather drive in the real world.
