The 87A is also loafing at 1.5KW on SSB or CW.

However, the reliable-amplifier mindset would much rather have a machine
capable of 6500 watts, including the beefiness of all the components inside
at that rating, loafing along at legal versus pushing something with 1.5KW
as its maximum output.

Wish I had a dollar for every time I have had my butt kicked in a pile up by
someone who was only one S unit stronger!

Richard,
I don't mean to rain on your parade, but that extra 6500 watts will get you
just over ONE S-unit more signal. So that "big" Henry 8K isn't going to make
your signal much bigger.

Scott, N9AA
