Dutch FCC allows 1600 watts for Full licensed under conditions

Now if we could all have Canada's level.

Indeed Fred......

The holder of an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate with Advanced Qualification is limited to a maximum transmitting power of:

• (a) where expressed as direct-current input power, 1,000 W to the anode or collector circuit of the transmitter stage that supplies radio frequency energy to the antenna; or
• (b) where expressed as radio frequency output power measured across an impedance-matchedload,
  
  • (i) 2,250 W peak envelope power for transmitters that produce any type of single sideband emission, or
  • (ii) 750 W carrier power for transmitters that produce any other type of emission.

But are U.S. Ops limited to 1000 watts PEP or input?

1500 watts PEP output

And I'm over here like, 15 watts, woohoo.

Yeah, 100 watts max here, depending upon forward reflection at any given moment

I'll stick to the SB-1000 and 400 watts, it will do 900, but at least the new 3-500 ZG will last a long time that way ;)
It's nice to have the option, though i don't see the reason for me to use it, my antenna;s and tuners could handle it though.

I hear ya. I typically only operate 5W out, sometimes, 20W.

At least your hands are yuuuuge.
