I finally got my BTECH 50x1 to work at 15 watts on two different repeaters fairly well. At 5 watts It works but has alot of noise in the signal. I cannot improve my antenna situation any more than I already have due to HOA restrictions otherwise I wouldn't be posting this. I'm considering the Kenwood TK-880h but it may only have a 10 watt low power setting. I want to keep the TX power as low as possible.
Here's my question, will the better quality Kenwood sound as good or better at 10 watts than my CCR - BTECH at 15 watts when I transmit?
I just don't want to invest a lot of time (programming learning curve) and a bit of hard earned cash and find out that 10 watts isn't enough.

Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.
