Carl,

Thanks for the heads-up on the new flash. Since the announcement on the net
a couple of weeks ago, I've been looking for it, but I've only been checking
the "what's new" on the main TT amateur page. That hasn't been updated to
indicate the new software.

I just downloaded the new flash code and tried AM transmit into a dummy load
using an (uncalibrated) Drake WM-4.  I found that on 80m it was easy to get
25+ watts., but the max power decreased with increasing frequency. On 10m I
was only able to get about 10w (the Pegasus power meter said 16).

73,
Mark

P.S. I also noticed that the flash file still reports the version as 1.150,
even though the name and documentation indicates 1.160.
