:headbangWhen i ordered the radio, i had variable power and echo installed. The seller uses a (bird 43 meter) and a dummy load, and says the dk is .5w at lowest and 11w at highest, and gets 90w PEP.
I installed this radio in my truck ,with SWR`s of 1.4 and get much different numbers.
I used a roadtech meter and i get a dk of .5w at the lowest, and 3w at the highest with 25w average.
I would like to buy an amp, but dont know which (wattage) to go by when i buy an amp! The (bird43) meter or my meter?
Any advice?
