Another vote for Tokyo Hy-Power. I have an HL-1.5 KFX and I love it. Works
beautifully with the K3, and awesome support from Tokyo Hy-Power including
personal e-mail relies from Nobuki Wakabayashi, the founder of the company.

I've used an Ameritron / MFJ ALS-600 for about 5 years and it works well. Also have the

Ameritron QSK-5 pin diode switch, a nice combo that gives you full QSK. However, if

you need customer service, forget it!



BTW, I noticed in the latest QST that Array Solutions has a QSK box that "looks like"

a QSK-5 but uses a high speed vacuum relay rather than pin diodes. If the relay is

quiet I think it should be more robust than the diodes.

I don't know what vac relay that Array Solutions is using, but I built a
QSK switch per Phil Salas AD5X  article
(http://www.ad5x.com/images/Articles/QSKrevB.pdf).  I used  a  Gigavac
relay and the relay noise  is many many dB under the fan of my amp,
works like a charm too!

I vote for SPE 1K-FA linear. I am using it for almost 2 years. It interfaces
easily with my K3 (as well as IC-7000), weights only 20kg, has automatic
programmable 4 antenna switch, built in automatic antenna tuner, supports
SO2R all in one small box. The amp is absolutely transparent in operation.
You just dial the freq in logger (or tune the radio) and transmitt 800-900
watt into the correct antenna. This combo (K3 and Expert 1K-FA) has been
through couple of expeditions and proved to be pretty reliable. Steppir now
sells Expert in the USA as a distributor.
