just want to take a moment and say thank you to all that have replied with good advice on some of my post with radio issues i got my pep kit for my bird on Monday simple install tried it on my 2000k on average 5watts talking switch to pep Swingin 15 watts so i decided to re-tune in pep mode well to my surprise i was able to get it to 18watts on pep and still keeping the 5 average. very happy with the results so it seems pep is a little more important than average when tunning at least for me at this moment
