At the risk of removing a snippet from context, and simplifying in
language and construction:

BELOW a
transition frequency
audio amps source rated at LOW Z sourcing high power into HIGH Z loads
work.

ABOVE that
transition frequency
retail Amateur transmitters source rated at LOW Z sourcing high power
into HIGH Z loads
do not work.

I wonder if that works (sic) with these statements reversed?

Bonus question:

What is the transition frequency?

Both questions can be simply answered: the first with a binary
response, the other with a numerical response (two place precision is
OK - even one place precision is sufficient).

This is the price of subject drift:
"AF amp specs as proof of RF amp performance."
What a work of obscurity.

You can challenge the premise, of course; but to reduce rambling
thoughts driven by subject drift, and to remain on topic:
