What's the difference between the KY 197 and the current KY 97?
100.

Actually it's a bit over $1000 or there abouts.
The difference between 5W and 10 Watts should be almost insignificant
(IE 3 db) in use.

Why would having twice as much power not be significant?

You'd think so, but 3 db isn't much and would be barely noticable up
to the service ceiling that we can fly unpressurized. 5W would
provided a good signal all the way to the horizon.
