    NO dude, you can't make that claim, there is a huge difference between the two, so much so that CB radios can not make the changes as does a AM broadcast transmitter. Also you can drop the laws of physics stuff unless you are willing to provide some proof of what you are talking about.

    A radio station monitors modulation and does adjust it as necesssary.
    Does any of you have a Radiotelephone license or a HAM license?

    I agree 99.9% of the time most folks can't change power levels without distorting.

    Perfect waveform regardless of 1/4 watt or 200 watt or anywhere in between. Seen it many times. Keep watching videos and I'm sure more will pop up.

    My Anytone blew up driving a DX1600V the other day. It's all rebuilt with new finals but I guess I'll never pair it with an amplifier and use it strictly barefoot.
