I aligned the rest of the bandpass filters and took the following readings..
3750 - 2.38 amp 7100 - 2.14 amp 10100 - 1.70 amp 14100 - 1.26 amp 18100 - 1.10 amp 21100 - 1.18 amp 24900 - 1.14 amp 28200 - 1.12 amp As you can see the higher in frequency, the better the readings are. However, even on the higher frequencies, the max power output is about 6 to 7 watts....
