==AM PEP== Assuming linear, perfectly symmetrical, 100% modulation of a carrier, PEP output of an [[amplitude modulation|AM]] transmitter is four times its [[carrier wave|carrier]] PEP; in other words, a typical modern 100-watt amateur transceiver is usually rated for no more than, and often less than, 25 watts carrier output when operating in AM.<ref>R.
