From a new guy

Neil Foster
Well I just took delivery on my first Elecraft, a KPA1500 and I have to say
after 60 years in the hobby it is the slickest thing since sliced bread!.
The KPA1500 Remote display is fantastic....OK now that that is said here is
the other shoe falling. I have been a LONG time member of the ARRL and lots
of times they do REALLY stupid things. Point in case BS7H "Scaffold Reef".
One other poster suggested writing the DXAC, well great idea, except the
DXAC turned down (as they should have) Sacaffold Reef. However, in their
infinite wisdom (or lack of it) the ARRL Board overruled the DXAC causing
several long time DXAC members to resign. You would have thought they would
have learned after the JA stilt operation years ago that was initially OK
and then deleted. Maybe the folks at the League will learn, but I doubt it.
My two cents.  And I love the KPA1500!👍😀

Agreed. I have limited time in hobby compared... 59 years!!  Best amp out there in my opinion after tons of research before making the jump.  Proof... you get what you pay for.  Love the extra gain over the KPA500 in these Sun cycle times.

73,
