For a few days now, I've been driving my Ameritron AL80B amplifier with 10-15
watts from my K2, yielding roughly 100-150 watts output on CW (no QSK). It's
been working very well. I thought I'd share how this is implemented, in case
anyone else is interested.
One of these days, I'll try the KPA-100, but for now I'm able to enjoy the K2
at the "standard" 100 watt power level with what I have in the shack. (No, I
haven't tried driving the amplifier with the Sierra !)
