There are two sizes of driver power table, small and large. The 'small' table, has larger power band
width, and is designed for broadband amplifiers, such as solid state amplifiers like the Icom PW-1.
The not small power table is designed, has smaller power band width, and is designed for narrow
band amplifiers, such as vacuum tube amplifiers. The small table has less entries, and is easier to es-
tablish, but it provides minimal power control as a function of frequency. The not small table, (large
table) has many more entries and takes longer to establish, but provides a greater control of power
as a function of frequency.
To change between a small and large power table, the following setting is used:
10-Small power table = True
Note: Changing this setting will reset the power level for each band segment to the minimum
power.
Option 10, details all the power band segments. Each line shows for each power band segment the
current setting. The values represents the Icom Radio "RF Power" pot position, given as a value
from 0 to 255, and as a percentage. Neither of these number represents the RF Power as measured
in watts. The actual driver power in watts is a function of the radio. These values are relative num-
bers.
The default value is zero... meaning the power level will be set to a minimum value, or 0%. If the
value is 255 or 100%, the driver/exciter will be at maximum power.
