But for years now, the standard max power for
most HF rigs has been 100 watts.
In Japan, where there is a 10W power limit on one class of HF operators,
there is a plethora of 10W rigs available, most exactly the same as their
100W cousins except with a 10W final stage. As an example, the Icom 760
which is identical to the Icom 761 except it runs 10W. If the regulations
created a market for 50W-max HF radios, they'd be on the shelves of HRO in
time for Christmas giving.
