I mentioned that I have been researching this stuff for awhile. I
figured I could post all the relevant links I have found that might be
of interest to people here.

While researching the Power to transmit functionality of the Kenwood
Radio, I came accross this site.. http://www.mrc.uidaho.edu/~atkinson/ENGR204/Borealis.pdf
It is very well written and the documentation is excellent. Lots of
good info inside.
