[CQ-Contest] CQWW 1500 W output ... stop the limit :)

[w5ov at w5ov.com]

Rob,

Google translate says it this way:

"Given that in this contest, the station was transmitted Running with
Alpha 77DX about 2500 Watts output , and the multiplier station with Acom
2000A in 2000w . Only 80 meters to 1.1 kW have come on the air. In the
rest of the bands , for example 10 meters, where the attenuation is
larger, 700w conveyed only in antenna."

Perhaps you can translate it properly and make clear how running 2500w
output or 2000w output does not exceed 1500 watts ?

There is no rule that allows for calculating loss to allow for greater
than 1500 w output regardless of what you get at the antenna.

73,

Bob W5OV
