I still have not seen the Genius pricing. I'm not sure what ever happened to
the Acom 1200S. Many people use the SPE 1.3KW on expeditions, I wonder how easy it is to hook it up to the K3S. The KPA-500 works nicely with the K3S but giving up 4.5dBs is considerable, a KPA-1000 would be hard to resist. John KK9A From: Gary K9GS Thu Mar 16 19:19:38 EDT 2017 I think that the ship has sailed with respect to Elecraft bringing a legal limit SS amp to market. There are a growing number of lightweight legal limit amps already on the market. The FlexRadio Power Genius looks especially promising: http://www.flexradio.com/amateur-products/powergenius-xl/ It only weighs 33 pounds. I saw it in operation at the Orlando HamCation and it looked very impressive operating all weekend into a dummy load at a conservative 1.5 kw output. SPE also just announced a 1.5 kw amp..something I'm surprised they did given that they already have a 1 kw, 1.3 kw, and a 2kw amp on the market. I know of several people that have the 1 kw amp and use it with their K3 radios and they love them. I've used the big SPE amp in CQWW CW and it worked flawlessly all weekend without a hiccup. ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

At Orlando the introductory price for the Genius was $6999.00 and they were taking orders for. I think, June delivery. They just received the FCC type acceptance a few days before.
I would assume that the SPE amps all integrate with the K3 in a similar fashion. When I used the SPE 2K in CQWW CW it was like having a 1.5K K3..just hummed along all weekend. 73-Gary K9GS -------- Original message --------From: [hidden email] Date: 3/16/17 8:36 PM (GMT-06:00) To: [hidden email] Subject: [Elecraft] Linear thoughts I still have not seen the Genius pricing.

The expert amps work great with the K-line. I use a 2kfa for contesting from K6LRG and the only equivalent amp I would put it up against is an ACOM 2000. It is essentially the Solid state equal of the ACOM but has more capabilities. The interface is excellent. Amongst my colleagues there are a couple of 1.3's that are lighter but essentially feature equal with just a bit less power output but equally useable with the k-line.

This debate seems to get resurrected a lot. I think the reason for that is
more philosophical than technical. Clearly 1 KW is better than 500 watts, at least in many cases. The question really is, do you actually need it, and can you make that leap practically. Answers to those questions will be all over the board. I run 500 watts because it is practical. I don't have a 1 ton brick to deal with, I didn't have to re-wire my shack, the lights don't dim when I go key down, and I don't apparently have RFI problems. I also only had to give up one arm and one leg (not both) to accomplish that financially--the cost/watt seems to go up significantly above that. If all those factors were neutralized, I might run 1 KW too! 500 watts is a lot of power! It gives me 60% of the maximum gain I can achieve legally (1 S unit down). 1 S unit is nothing to sneeze at, but I find that, usually, if I can hear them I can work them. More often than not, if I have a problem, It is hearing them. A bigger amp won't solve that. I could probably gain 2 S units or more, both on RX and TX, with somewhat better antennas. Well, that's a problem here too, but not for a lot of others. Invariably the "weak signal" argument is raised, and it's hard to refute. However, I really wonder how often that is really solved by a bigger amp. They may be weak on your RX, but the reverse might not be true. I'm just asking, not refuting. It does seem to me, though, that it is more a matter of out shouting other stations. On the other hand, it may be a matter of defeating the other person's noise level. Score 1 for more power. In fact, that may be one of the best arguments for more power. Anyway, I don't think there is an answer here--just options and consequences. A bigger amp is not a panacea--just an option. What I think I do know, however, is that we tend to run more power than we need, not less. Still, that depends on your philosophy. A lot of folks have V8's, when a V6 is plenty. Actually, I have a V8, but it just drinks more gas, and doesn't get me there any quicker.

Eric,
Hallelujah! First acknowledgment of such a possibility! I vote to put a second amp module in the RF Deck (i.e., an RF deck that is the same as the total size of the KPA500) and have a separate switching supply in another box. 1200-1300 watts would be a sweet spot if 1.5K is a problem.

KPA1500?
QSK. Bombproof. IF possible, amp only in K3 form factor, separate power supply regulated with sense line from the amplifier module. KAT1500 with ability to place it remotely, able to place KAT1500 control buttons in an otherwise blank spot on KPA1500 front panel. KAT1500 with memory per antenna jack per frequency. KPA/KAT communication via telemetry over coax center conductor. 73, Guy K2AV On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 1:06 PM, Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft <[hidden email]> wrote: > Interesting discussion. > > Folks, if we did introduce a 1500 W solid state amp similar to our KPA500 in > operation, what features etc would be important? > > 73, > Eric ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

1. Separate power supply or small control box (ala ACOM 2000A). Same
form factor as K line if separate power supply (small control box able to control an integral or separate "KAT1500" as well). 2. Solid state. 3. Full integration with K line similar to KPA500 and easy integration with other radios including KX3 & KX2. 4. 160-6m. 5. 1500 W. 6. True SO2R capable with K line and other radios (SPE 1.3K is almost there). 7. Integral antenna tuner or "KAT1500". 8. Easily user modified to get rid of antiquated 15db gain limit. 9. Clean TX throughout entire power range on a par with K3s. 10. Easily remotable. 11. QSK with adjustable parameters. Mike KD8RQE In a message dated 3/17/2017 1:12:20 P.M.

Three times the power, one-third the cost?
Somewhat more seriously: legal limit, internal tuner for up to at least 3:1 SWR (option?), optional separate power supply, quieter cooling. Bigger box to match K4.

My thoughts in order of importance to me:
1) 1500 W continuous duty - 100% clean signal. 2) 160 - 6 M 3) QSK - no relays 4) 1 package - no separate power supply 5) Lightweight (this is relative of course) 6) Remotely controllable 7) Internal tuner not required 73, Bud N7CW On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 10:06 AM, Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft < [hidden email]> wrote: > Interesting discussion. > > Folks, if we did introduce a 1500 W solid state amp similar to our KPA500 > in operation, what features etc would be important? > > 73, > Eric > /elecraft.com/ > > > ______________________________________________________________ > 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] > 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] |
