No formal announcement of which I'm aware. There are pictures of a prototype, which others have seen and reported. There may be more info tomorrow.
One side effect of hanging around the Elecraft booth: K2 #4491 is in the bag ready for the trip home, where it will join K1 #1966. The K1 will be getting a new accessory to keep it company while the K2 is being built: A sweet new brass March magnetic paddle -- a gem from among the junk in the flea market.

Got to see the new amp in action last night at the Crowne Plaza hotel - this
is where the main DX and contest suite is at in downtown Dayton. About 11PM Eric showed up with the amp, a K2 to drive it and a dummy load. Eric set the amp up in the hallway for passer-byes to see. I will try to get the info as correct as best I can. Will have to wait for Elecraft to clarify any details. - What was shown was a prototype 800-1KW solid-state amp - It was driven with about 30-40W from a K2 and was putting out about 1KW into a dummy load - It is about 80% the size of an 87A and looks very much like the Alpha. - Weight is about 35 lbs with a self-contained switching supply. - It is set up for SO or SO2R. There are SO-239 connections for 2 antennas and 2 rigs. You can be transmitting with the amp with one rig while listening through the amp with another rig. There are two RS-232 ports on the amp. In theory it looks like the amp could be remoted and run from a PC if you desired. - After the release of this version there will be a 1.5KW version. I believe this version will use an external power supply. This lower power version may be upgradeable to the 1.5KW version. - The amp will be offered fully assembled and tested and also as a kit. It sounds like the assembled version will be about $3K and the kit about $2.5K. Critical areas such as the 2 final boards and parts of the switching supply will be pre-assembled and tested. - This version of the amp should be released late summer, early fall. - It should handle SWR in the 3-4:1 range. It uses band-pass filters so no-tune. Bottom line - It looked real nice. I plan on getting one when it is available. Off to the airport to head home from another wonderful weekend at Dayton. 73, N2TK, Tony -----Original Message----- From: N2TK, Tony [mailto:[hidden email]] Sent: Saturday, May 21, 2005 5:11 PM To: '[hidden email]' Subject: RE: [Elecraft] Anything News at Dayton from Elecraft??

At the FDIM hotel, Wayne was driving the new amp with a K2/100, turned down
to about 40W. FCC apparently requires a minimum drive of 50W to create full output on an amp of this size. It didn't sound like they had made it through acceptance yet... But the delivery was 3 - 4 months away at minimum (fall?) for the initial offering. They were toying with both a fully constructed model, and a partial kit (switching power supply and power output modules built). Price has not yet been set as design and suppliers were no doubt not finalized. However, save your money. This will NOT be "petty cash". I imagined prices in the $3k range - give or take. The prototype was in a matte black cabinet, estimated at 18"w X 6"h x 18"d. But I believe the weight was quoted at a modest 35#. Also, while I didn't get a chance to inqurie, they had a prototype watt meter at Hamvention. About the size of the T1....

In reply to this post by Craig Rairdin
I want to thank all Elecrafters who stopped by the SteppIR booth to see my prototype E-meter wide dynamic range digital wattmeter kit. Thanks especially to Eric who offered words of encouragement... a real gentleman. I was surprised I didn't see more QRPers though, since the E-meter is an outstanding QRP wattmeter for main station use, with tons of high-end features, and will have a case that closely matches the K1/EC1 in the production version. I got more orders from the QRO guys than QRPers, and they mostly wanted assembled versions. If you missed the show, or my original announcement, check out the E-meter at www.telepostinc.com/n8lp.html. If you like homebrewing, the E-meter will also be featured in an upcoming issue of QEX.

Hi Larry,
I saw your original announcement and checked your web site. At the time, I thought it was a remarkable piece of equipment and I still do. I'm not surprised the QRO guys were very interested. But I am surprised that you don't understand why more QRP ops have not expressed interest. For many of us QRP types, "Less is More". That's what attracted us to QRP in the first place. Not the ability to get crappy signal reports as a reward for running low power, but the ability to get any signal report with "relatively" simple equipment. An SWR/wattmeter that seems to be more sophisticated than my K1 isn't exactly at the top of my shopping list even if it does match it in size. And the very idea of owning an instrument with a 2500W range flat turns me off. (Yes, I could just ignore it). Of course, that might just be me. Others might see that as an appealing feature. My purpose is not to knock your SWR/Wattmeter. As I said it is a remarkable instrument. It may very well be the best QRP/QRPp wattmeter out there; it has the right range and resolution to fill that bill. You wouldn't be the first manufacturer to wonder why customers don't see the same value you see in your product. It may be as simple as getting back in touch with the customers you are trying to appeal to. You obviously are making an impact on the QRO ops. It might be worth figuring out what QRP ops are looking for in an SWR/wattmeter. Also, I can't seem to find any price for the SWR/Wattmeter on your website. I understand you were taking orders at Dayton so pricing must have been established. Maybe you could share it here.

Y'know what would make it appeal to me? (Three guesses. C'mon, if you
know me, this one should be easy!) OK, OK. No one knows me. *LOL* Fine. I gather it can be computer controlled, but how 'bout either morse or voice readout, as well as a continuous tone for relative readings (i.e. to tune finals or antenna tuners by ear). Something like what the RF Concepts P2000CW used to offer. Closest thing I know of to this would be the newly available LDG TW-1 talking SWR/watt meter. Anyway. ... _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

In reply to this post by EricJ-2
Thanks for the input Eric. You may be right on a couple of counts. I am only a QRPer in the field, and tend to be more more a "100-watter" at home. Since I had 90dB of dynamic range to play with, I decided to use it all, thus the 2500W top end (I also picked 2500W because it represents 2dB of headroom over 1500W... and indicates to high duty cycle users that there is some design headroom). I also see the E-meter as more of an accessory for K2 users, which is what I have, and only selected the EC1 style case because that's the size I need. I really don't expect many K1 owners, or probably any KX1 owners to be interested in my kit, but the K2 is a different story in my opinion. The K2 is not a bare bones rig by any stretch... just a low power ( w/o KPA100). Owners of the more portable gear will undoubtedly want a meter with small size, low power consumption and low price. I could easily offer a lower cost, smaller coupler for "QRP-only", and change the power range so that it covers .1 microwatt to 20W for example, instead of .01 milliwatt to 2500W in the current config. That would save considerable money as well, but would not work for you if you add a KPA100. Would a 100W or 200W top-end offend people? Don't know. It would also save money to put the coupler in the case with the meter as opposed to a remoteable coupler, which would be easy with a low-power coupler like the one in the T1. I suspect part of the problem is that a company associated with expensive beams offered the table space to me... thereby skewing the type of op who was likely to see my meter. I don't think it's appropriate to post prices here, but I will put them on the website in a few minutes for those who are interested.

Yes, it can be controlled by computer and I supply Windows freeware to
do so. The SWR alarm beeps now, and I could add the other features. I think I like cw better than voice, and I like the idea of a variable pitch tone for tuning. Variable tone and cw output would be very easy to add even to the hardware, with nothing more needed than a small speaker/transducer.

Sometimes I want to measure QRP power levels, so I am stuck buying another instrument. If your unit had been available when I bought the QRO unit, I certainly would have chosen it. Why have two meters when one can do the job? > Would a 100W or 200W top-end offend people? Don't know. I've already been warned to moderate my expression of opinion about people who take offense at the concept of using the minimum amount of power necessary to communicate in any given case -- from QRP to full legal power. So I won't express it again! However I will say that for me, being useful at both ends of the scale would be a selling point. From a marketing point of view, since the great majority of hams have 100 watt transceivers, limiting a meter with a 90 db dynamic range to less than 200 watts full scale would be silly. As far as having a remote coupler, this is almost a necessity for a 1.5KW + unit because nobody wants fat coax pulling the unit off the table. But at the 200 watt level, one can always use RG58 jumbers to and from the meter, even if the antenna itself is fed with thicker coax. So maybe you might add a less expensive 200-watt maximum unit with a built-in coupler to your line (but keep the QRP-to-2500 watt version). -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

It has been brought to my attention off-list that the name e-meter is used widely in the Scientology community, so for safety I think I will henceforth refer to my project as the E-100. Doh! I will make the changes on my website and on the front panel of the Elecraft style case when it is finished.

K2/100!
According to the FCC, FCC rules dictate no more than 13dB of gain from an external amplifier. As a result, the K2/100 will be required for full output from the proposed QRO amp, which will require about 50W to fully drive it.

I wonder if those of us not under FCC regulation could purchase an
international version of the amp. I'd love to see 800 watts out from the amp with the QRP version of the K2 running at 10-15 watts. Perhaps even a lower priced version without SO2R capabilities...
