AWESOME AMP
After owning this amp for a month and operating it a lot all I can say is "WOW" I run mine on a dedicated 120V line. With 35 watts drive the amp puts out 850 watts PEP on 75 & 40 meters. On the higher bands with the same drive output is around 750 PEP. These readings are measured by the power meter in my Palstar HF-Auto tuner. Power readings are slightly higher on my external Autek WM-1 meter. The amp is simple to run, turn it on, put it in operate. As soon as you speak into the mic the amp switches bands, and there is no need for a data cable from amp to rig to do that. So you turn it on and forget about it. The fans are quiet, I have only had the secondary fan come on once or twice when the amp reached 65C internal temperature. 90C is the limit for that. All in all it seems to be a well designed amp. Plus at my station it sits beside my Palstar HF Auto Tuner and they make a great pair to look at! I had to order mine, and Paul at Radio World was great to deal with. Amp arrived at the store quickly. If you are looking for a solid state amp IMO this is the one to buy.
