Approx. 0dBm = 125w output CCS, no Bp filtering, 12vdc.





To which Dave wrote:

I always thought 0dBm = 0.001 watt!! [Zero dB relative to a milliwatt]

I alway thought 125 watts is 50.97 dBm. Guess the rules of power
specifications have changed as I've aged.


I think what the gentleman was implying is that with 0dbm input - the
amp outputs 125W - a gain of (approximately) 51db.
