Why be sorry I'm only wondering... I'd thought that over 15dB of gain
was against the rules. 10W is 40dBm thus +15dBm is 55dBm or a little
over 300Watts.
which the KPA500 aint a gonna do... Guess the KPA500 is probably only
going to provide around 12dB of gain. While if your measurements are
correct the SPE Expert 1K-FA is giving you 17dB of gain.
Not challenging you I was just wondering.
