==================================================================
**  Well, for TPO we have a total of 1.85 MEGAwatts.  EPR is beyond my 
mental ability, but in
the gigawatt range.  One of our curtain antennas can be configured for a 
gain of 30 Db.  That packs
a punch.  Electric bill runs close to 65-68 THOUSAND a month. ****
