[TenTec] re Orion II thoughts

Did the FCC make some more changes I did not see.  Isn't the power output limit still 1500 watts PEP?!!

I agree that the 1/2 S-unit is a marginal benefit at best.

Some amps won't drive to the legal limit with only 100W in.  Or maybe it has
to do with getting a full 2500 watts PEP out of those capable amps if you
have a bit more than 100 watts to drive it.  Of course, we're still in the
range of 1/2 S-unit or less.  So it is a bit of a head scrather :-)
