Copied this from elsewhere. It seems we now have another power spike
variant.

I was going to use my TR-751A for QRP portable use, 
but haven't been able to eliminate the full
power spike that occurs when you let up on the mic
button when you are in USB--so I get 29 watts on 
the Bird PEP meter, even in the low power position.
Doesn't appear to be a problem on CW or FM, 
but I wouldn't run the rig into a brick
or transverter unless it could handle the
29 watt power spikes. --Zack W1VT  FN33kd in Sept VHF test
