    This should explain why that additional power is pretty much useless except under a very limited set of circumstances.

    Too bad a beam isn't practical in a mobile application.

    I didn’t bother with video, just statement.

    Disproven thousands of times every day. 30-plus watts will get you heard.

    4W will get you ignored.

    Spoken like a true keydown competition contestant.. I take it you're not much into qrp operation. If you focus on your antenna skills it's amazing what you can accomplish.

    Covered before.

    A company truck is hard enough. Not mine. And no holes drilled allowed.

    $75 for a 75W amp is cheap, easy and effective.

    If it were my pickup, I’d agree.
