I think, to be safe, you would want to divide the pep in half for actual
power out.  This is the rule of thumb I've always gone by.

By the way Michael, feel free to give me a call here any time at my toll

Subject: PEP input



Hi gang:

I was just looking at some of the old Drakes on-line.  I'm  particularly
impressed with the
TR-4CW/RIT and TR-7s.

I would like to know the difference between a 300W PEP input verses the
actual wats out.  I think PEP output is generally divided in half to
determine those wats.  Could the wats out be say about 70% of the PEP input?

Thanks:
Michael VO1RYN
