DPD correction for 20W PA

Question

Hi, 
 I have a 20W PA, but the ADRV2029 datasheet mentions DPD correction is optimized for power amplifiers with RMS output powers between 250mW and 10W. I would like to clarify the following: 
 
 Can I still use a 20W PA on ORX for DPD correction? 
 If I use a 20W PA, is there a risk of damaging the chip or causing malfunction? 
 
 Thanks.

1A) Yes, you can use it for 20W PA as well 
 2A) There is no new risk as such. You can use it for 20W as well. You need to maintain the max input power levels of the ORX which is required for lower power level PAs as well)
