The peak power output of a single-sideband transmitter, when being tested by a two-tone generator is:
twice the RF power output of any of the tones
In a two-tone test of an ideal SSB transmitter, if each tone individually produces P watts, the PEP with both tones is (sqrt(P) + sqrt(P))^2 / (2R) if P is average. If P is the power of one tone in the composite signal, the PEP is 2P (each tone is half the peak voltage).
