Any idea what sort of power one would give with 10 watts drive? I have
downloaded the manual but it does not seem to give a gain figure.
Thanks.
The FCC limits gain of commercially manufactured amps; I think I
remember that the number is 14 or 15 dB. If that's correct, and it's
certainly close, 10W could get you something like 200-250W and still be
in compliance. I've found my Herc II easy to drive, but I've never taken
the time to read input and output power with a reasonably well
calibrated wattmeter.
