So.......the 1KW plus boys would admit their 'guilt' to the world ?

At the end of the day what counts is skill/expertise.

I wouldn't mind betting that a properly operated 396w [26dB] Station
could knock the spots off one running a 'mere' 6dB more whose operator
is not 'man for the job'.

Out of Interest......are NFD Stations still 'inspected' ?

As an aside, someone asked about Maximum Power in Other Countries.

Moldova is 400w PEP, Rumours that one or two of their Big Boys run c10KW
are unconfirmed.<smile>
