Thanks George!  Yeah, I get the picture now.  It's certainly going to be a challenge!  I've been trying to figure how I'd come up with 50 watts erp using a Carolina Windom and an Orion with a built-in tuner?  The manufacturer says the Carolina Windom may have up to 10 db gain!  So, I'd need to drive it with 20 watts peak.  My best guess would be to find a reference, on the Orion power setting or meter, running into a dummy load with a peak reading watt meter?  Maybe it's more trouble than it's worth?
