55w ERP for 100' of LMR-400 into an antenna with a -3.37 dB of loss, I
get 160 watts TPO.
TPO in watts_____________________: 160 watts .
TPO in dBm_______________________: 52.0412
(10*LOG10((watts * 1000)/1)).
Line loss and equipment__________: 1.238089
.
Antenna gain in dBd______________: -3.37
In reference to a dipole.
ERP dBm__________________________: 47.43311
(TPO in dBm-line loss+antenna gain).
ERP in watts_____________________: 55.37466
(10^([ERP in dBM]/10)/1000).
