Finished with my second #POTA activation for today at K-4342... turning the power up to 100W really helps the work rate! This was my most productive activation ever! #FT4 #AmateurRadio #hashtag #QRO

I measured the power consumption of my #IcomIC7300 and noticed a non-linear rise, so I decided to plot the data.
It's quite noticeable how the radio reaches 2/3 of its 100% power consumption at already 10% RF output power and 90% just below half way on the RF knob.
Also, the curve starts at 60W... 😬

I have several #QRO rigs but I generally work #QRP portable. This setup with a 9v/200mAh with 2 watts during a #parksontheair #pota activation yielded 23 #QSOs 11 states in 50 minutes on 40m. All with a #qcxmini #qrpradio and a #diy #linkeddipole #RBNcaptue over 500 miles #amateurradio #hamradio
