No mention whatsoever of transmitter power.

I will assume its 100 watts (correct us if that is wrong).
Buy or borrow a 1500 watt amplifier for the next
contest and then let us know how you score.
It's one thing to have one hand (antenna) tied behind
your back.  But its another thing to tie the other hand
(transmitter power) behind your back as well.
