I squared the wrong number (15+15)^2.
The correct rule is:
If you have a certain number of carriers you have to multiply
them by the *square of their number* to calculate the necessary PEP.
E.g., if you have 4x15W carriers you need 15x 4^2 =240W,
or with 10x15W carriers you need 15 x 10^2 = 1500W PEP.

Of course you're right,Albert.
I did a wrong calculation,perhaps because it was before coffee. :-)

Clemens,

To my knowledge the PEP of two tones (carriers) is only 6 dB higher than one tone. So a (real) linear amplifier suitable for delivering 60 - 100 watts output can deal with the two 15W carriers without any problem.

On the other hand,if you would use one single linear amp  to TX two 15W carriers (tones in USB)
it would have to be capable of delivering 900W(!) PEP to stay linear.
