If you're going to Visalia ...

I'd welcome some photos taken from all angles.

After all, many of you will want dust covers. (;-)

Need a weight, though it's likely too heavy for a carrying case.

Re: If you're going to Visalia ...

Hi Bruce!

Boy if I could be there you'd have a deal!

I was a regular in the Elecraft booth for a number of years, but both mine
and Ken's health keep us close to home these days. The good news is that
my oncologist says I'm still "cancer-free". (:-)

No need for that. The RF deck weighs only 22 pounds.

Re: If you're going to Visalia ...

So, based on Wayne's last little snippet about weight, here's a few
ideas for everyone to toss around.

1. It will have a separate power supply. I'd estimate the weight for a
good 3kw switcher in the 10-12 lb area.
2. The tuner will be another separate unit. No idea on a weight for
this one.

Re: If you're going to Visalia ...

So what are the PS requirements, voltage and Amps,
Wayne?

And, I guess the next question will be, will there
be a matching power supply?

Matching 50-V regulated switching supply comes with it. Just 15 pounds. Roughly 6’ cable; could be longer.

Re: If you're going to Visalia ...

Let's see: the ALS-1306 is $2800 without a tuner for price comparison for a 1500 watt solid state amp, but the PowerGenius is $7000. Prometheus is even higher.

Check the SPE 2k and 1.3k prices for another near competitor. I would think they show the range if likely numbers.
