astron 70 amp ps. problem

[DXman]

Doesn't matter what kind off radio it is, 200 watts is 200 watts and unless it's @ - efficiency 200 watts only draws 14 amps or so @13.8 volts.

My ts-430s kenwood uses less than 20 amps @ 200 watts in ssb mode and that's on a astron rs-20a power supply now debunk that.

This is true what you say above...but just about all these radio will do close to 300 peak on modulation, some have been know to do 300 +.
I have listen to several of the N2 models on the air and everyone of the guys that are using them, are using a 70 amp supply to run the radio.

When I first got mine a few weeks back, I hooked it up to a 36 amp PS, on first key it pegged the needle and almost stopped the PS. I am now running the radio on a 50 amp ps, but can only run the power setting at the lowest point, which is around 200.

Soooo, I either detune the radio or go for a bigger supply.
