B.  Failure to produce 1500 watts of output power when driven by at least 50 watts of mean input power

C.  Any features designed to facilitate operation in a telecommunication service other than the Amateur Service

D.  The omission of a schematic diagram and theory of operation manual that would permit an amateur to modify the amplifier

 

E1G10 (D) [97.317c3]

Which of the following would disqualify an external RF power amplifier from being granted Certification?
