[Amps] Time to back up- SS and autotune

[Roger (K8RI)]

The modulation is applied by "reducing or controlling" the power, rather 
than plate modulation which adds and subtracts, so the maximum power is 
with full carrier and no modulation. Any modulation reduces the power.  
IIRC 100% modulation, single tone would produce an average of 25 KW on a 
50 KW signal.
