[hpsdr] The Reversed T2 transformer on Penelope Revisited

[Mike F]

I have just finished incorporating a power amp and low pass filter 
assembly from a Yaesu FT-900 into my HPSDR system (Note:  This is an 
extremely straight forward incorporation.  I can supply details to 
anyone interested.).  The system works great with this setup, but the PA 
is rated at 100 watts and I am only able to drive it to 60 watts using 
Penelope without Pennywhistle.  I was operating on 20 meters and after 
setting the PA gain in PowerSDR to 38 for 20 meters I reached 60 watts 
with the slider at 18 and had no increase after that.

I have read the wiki entry about the reversed T2 problem on Penelope and 
have verified that my T2 is reversed.  My question is:  Will reversing 
T2 provide me with sufficient drive on 20 meters to get closer to the 
100 watt level?

Thanks
