Beware of splatter if feeding it more than half its rated input. All the RM amps are like that, except the HLA series, which have proper filtering on them.A QRP radio and a 200w amplifier

I have been warned, cheers
I have ordered a 100w 40db attenuator so I can test it at half power. I can then work out what filtration I need to make for it. It will only be used on 20 & 15m if I struggle with the X6100 being heard.

Back in the days of CB I recall Zetagi(?) meant amp like Hoover meant vacuum cleaner. They were Italian too.

Get your boots on or turn the burner on
I knew someone with a rear wing mounted antenna that used a burner and it would induce current in the heated rear window element and illuminate the "on" switch on the dash, another trick was to key up outside a TV shop and watch all the screens scramble (CRT TV days)
