I have one of the ComTek (now DXEngineering) 2 element phased array boxes on
the way.  I need a dummy load for the dump power.  DXEngineering suggests a
full legal limit dummy load, but I have a 150 watt dummy load here already.
 I'll be running a max of 1000 watts into the array.  Do I really need a
dummy load that will handle the full power that's input to the array?
