I've moded my power supply for 3150V under load, and can get 1500W PEP. But standard 1200Ws typical.

Ron, how do you get "legal limit ++" out of an L4B? I've owned several of
them and get only 1200-1300W output, measured on accurately calibrated
wattmetes. My latest one has the same mods (new caps, diodes, etc.) as
yours.
