Oh and about the 10w limit.

A very close friend of mine is an M6, and with the max 10w power on the HF bands has great success contacting stations around the world. USA South America, Africa, Asia, Australia etc.

What's even more impressive is that this guy only ever operates as a back pack portable station, with home made antennas constructed from fishing poles and thin loudspeaker wire.

Encouraging eh?

And at that power level, its possible to operate for extended periods of time from remote locations with only minimal battery capacity and a small solar panel to keep it topped up.
