As Rich asked, I was joking, realizing average stations aren't equiped for 
accurate measures.   But since the discussion has gotten to ---Max output 
from a SB220 --- then all measurement tolerances  should be accounted for 
and any drive power not utilized  needs to be subtracted from the final 
reading. Knowing that most of us are not capable of readings within 200w or 
so, it's really moot. 73, WA4TT
