[TenTec] ten tecs have 100 watts out on carrier??

[Bill Harris]

John:
Some rigs have to lower their output power if they are going to operate single or double sideband with carrier.  This is so not to exceed the output power rating of the final device/s upon 100% modulation.  Ten-Tec's 100 watt output is not reduced because they do not operate ssb or dsb w/carrier, except for the Orion model.  Not sure about the new Omni VII.

  actually you have not helped me out - you still have not answered the question - whats the difference between an am carrier and cw carrier? if it's the same as some people say why on a japanese radio the am carrier is only 25 to 50 watts (depending on the radio) when the mic is keyed vs. 100 watts on the same jap radio cw mode keyed down - all assuming swr is 1? i understand the swr fold back issue.> From: OTAKEBI at aol.com<mailto:OTAKEBI at aol.com>> Date: Sun, 30 Sep 2007 16:39:52 -0400> To: tentec at contesting.com<mailto:tentec at contesting.com>> Subject: Re: [TenTec] ten tecs have 100 watts out on carrier??> > Yes, Mike.> Now we know what was going on once he explained it a little better.> I had a TS 180s that at had to see a perfect, flat, SWR to put out full > output.> Like Ten Tecs better.> Glad we were able to help him.> Dan/N4VET> > > >
