New Elecraft Amplifier

[Ron Gould]

Will the new 900 watt amplifier require any connections to the radio other than a coax cable and if so then is it supplied and how long will it be?  I currently use an amp that has to be keyed and am curious as my amp is not real close to the radio and I am considering the new amp.  My current amp uses a tube and is a Drake L75.  I was also wondering when I can order the new tuner to go with the radio and amp?  PS I have never soldered naked and do not plan to change my current lifestyle.

Ron:

The KPA500 also requires an amplifier key line, which is a standard audio
item, a cable with an RCA phono plug on each end.  I don't know if one will
be supplied.

The KPA500 is a 500 watt amplifier.

I just don't know the answers to your other questions.

And after reading recent forum notes, my naked soldering days are over!

What will be the usable power on RTTY?

Thanks for the information and sorry for confusion about the 900 watt amp.  It was a typepo
and I realize its a 500 rated amp.
