John, I assume you are talking about analog cellular, and you are mostly correct. Analog cellular phones are 3 watt, except for handheld units, which are only about .7 watt due to the antenna's close proximity to the user's brain. At least for analog systems, 3 watt systems will have fewer connection problems at the margins, and this is why I still have a hardwired 10 year old Radio Shack (rebranded Nokia) phone in my Mercury (and will until it dies on its own or my new employer buys me something else)(got a new job this morning Hurrah!).
