[Amps] 20kW load

[Steve Thompson]

Sorry, lost the original post - this is an update on email sent directly to 
the poster.

Visit http://www.johnsradio-uk.com/products.asp and look up the Bird 8645. 
Bird spec. it up to 900MHz. Haggle in person with cash and you can get up to 
25% off.

For a different purpose, a friend who works for Bird talked to the engineering 
guys in the loads/attenuators department on my behalf. For the freestanding 1 
or 2.5kW units, they believe that power rating for pulses of fractions of a 
second is limited by voltage breakdown in the connector. With plenty of air 
cooling, average power can be 4 x the basic cw rating, and pep 10 x cw 
rating.
