I am not for sure Grumpy. I have a turbo also but with a switch on da back an all I get is bout 90 watts. But I think my internal amp is fried an thats why they put a switch on it. The best person to ask is Tech808 cause I know he has one an it does more than that.

Grumpy,

Yes, that is about correct depending on where you have your RF Power knob / control set.

Hope this helps,

all depends on the quality of the meter being used by each different person.
also, on some meters, you may read 150 watts on a 200 watt scale, & 300 watts on a 2000 watt scale. always use the smallest scale without full deflection.

i wouldn't trust the word of a tech that gets 250 watts out of 2 80 watt transistors in a 110volt AC powered radio.
give or take 10% tolerances & variables, 160 watts is it.
