I really don't know Dudmuck ? Some times things sound like they can make sence , doesn't always mean they make sence. Once upon a time ago , I used to test amps before the covers were put on them before they went into there boxes.
I may have tested half a dozen or so lots of them over a few months of time. I used to get some of the worse headaches I ever had in my life after a few times of doing this. I always would get them and I finally refused to test them anymore.
These were not monster boxes either , most were 2 x 455s and 454 class C boxes back in the early 90s . Was it just me ? The boss man used to get the headaches as well from time to time. I know today that I would never do it again . I have met some down right strange techs in my time as well as there attitudes towards people . IM not saying they don't know there crafts well , IM just saying there just seemed like they had some kind of chips on there shoulders towards people for really no reason at all .
Maybe it just takes one to know one ? But I've seen and met a few. I see no reason for anything over 500 watts pep in a cb radio type situation , and I can only hope for a decent well made ab type amplifier for use. 8 / 16 / 32 ect. ect . does not and will not ever make any sence to me what so ever. This is not some
competition for me in any way shape or form.
If I were a Ham (and it ain't going to happen to soon) I would still want the best well made amp I could get my hands on (or afford) . So this would mean I could run alot of watts legally. Is the rf in those any safer then the rf that comes out of these garage built class c cb radio type amps ? ......I could only hope that they were , but I suppose I really don't have to worry about that because it ain't going to happen.
And your right Dudmuck about the microwave oven , I honestly don't know what good it will do me ? but when I use them , 9 times out of 10 , I walk away from them. No need to stick my face up against the glass window and watch it go around and round. Same goes for a TV set , Now the computer screen might be a different story ? But I have no clue on how much rf this 20 incher is zapping me with from less then 3ft away from it ?
