have is for 2 meters (NOT dual band), and the label says up to 50
watts. I have an Icom IC-2200H, which has a maximum of 65 watts
output.

What bad things may/could/will happen if I put 65 watts through the
antenna?

Thanks!

Tom;

The only thing you want to watch out for is to not place the antenna
pads on one of the defrost wires.
I have used one in the past with good success.
