Your coils may handle many, many watts but effective use of the power diminishes after 50 watts.
There are many issues to consider:
Antenna placement, type, cable length, quality of equipment, grounding end to end, weather and so on. Pump 2000 watts through a mag mount and watch things melt.
I have pumped 350 watts through a mag mount and could feel the feedback on my hands and face via the microphone. Seriously.
Ever had an RF burn?
