ARRL Bulletin 40 ARLB040 From ARRL Headquarters Newington CT April 13, 1993 To all radio amateurs SB QST ARL ARLB040 ARLB040 More power denied More power denied The FCC has denied a request for a waiver of the amateur 1,500 watt power output limitation. Dale Gagnon, KW1I, of Bowe, NH, had asked for the waiver earlier, as well as a reconsideration of the FCC's original denial. The FCC said that Gagnon's latest request for a waiver ''has not shown that his circumstances are unique nor has he presented any facts that would warrant a waiver.'' Gagnon wanted the waiver for his own use, to legally operate on AM at a PEP power more than 1,500 watts output. NNNN
