This rating is contingent upon having a minimum of 3 dB of amplifier headroom available.
Harmonic Distortion
Second and third harmonic distortions vs. frequency are plotted in figures 5 and
6 for two power levels, ten percent (10%) of rated input power and either one percent (1%) of rated input power or one Watt, whichever is greater. Distortion is read from the graph as the difference between the fundamental signal (frequency response) and the desired harmonic. As an example, a distortion curve that is down 40 dB from the fundamental is equivalent to 1% distortion.
