You know I trust you buddy. I wanna be able to talk locally to the coal truck drivers off the amp. That's why he had the high side up is on 6. And I want to be able to talk skip on the amp. That's why the low side was at 2. The amps just not working the way it was with the 980. The amp says it can handle 5-10 watts input but I know that's crap. but even with less than 2 watts, the amps not swinging up to make power. with a deadkey of around 1.5w, it makes about 38w. On AM. With a deadkey of around 1.5, it makes about 23w. On SSB. With a 2w deadkey, it makes 60w on AM. and with a 2w deadkey makes about 30w on SSB. Send me a message and tell me what to do...If I need to get a bigger amp. I guess I'll start saving now...LOL
