I've posted a review of my field test KPA1500 on eHam:
http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/13702. I got sort of carried away with testing the amp and used it in NAQP CW even though that contest is limited to 100W. The amp worked great and gave me a delightful 12dB unfair advantage! So my entry is a checklog but I sure had fun generating it. Apologies to my NCCC friends - it was an inadvertent screw-up. I had really intended to operate within the rules and contribute a few points. 73, /Rick N6XI -- Rick Tavan, Saratoga & Truckee, CA ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

This is one of the downsides of the KPA1500. Unlike other amps, it feels
like QRP when it's putting out 1.5 KW.
