[Amps] PEP power..

[Jan Erik Holm]

Isn´t this a correct defenition of PEP?

peak envelope power (of a radio transmitter): The average power supplied 
to the antenna transmission line by a transmitter during one radio 
frequency cycle at the crest of the modulation envelope taken under 
normal operating conditions.

Maybe it´s a language barrier but it doesn´t seem to fit
with what W8JI writes below.

What is right?
