Even that isn't enough. When EF8M posted a YouTube of their operation a few
years ago, there were several "accidental" shots of their WaveNode wattmeters in
action. One shot showed power being split into two antennas, with 4500+ watts
going into each antenna. That YouTube was up for a few days before it was removed.
Impact on EF8M ? None.
