I can't find any reference to this amp after searching. Can you provide
a link? That'd provide 750W from a 15W K2....

FCC Section 97.313(a) "At all times, an amateur station must use the minimum
transmitter power necessary to carry out the desired communications."
Here is the link to the company:

The amplifier is distributed in NA by Steppir:

It specify: - High power gain (16 dB)
A review was published in the September QST.
I have been using the amplifier for the last 12 months to my entire
satisfaction, in fact displacing the two other amps with 3CX800A7 tubes. It
occupies almost the same space as the K3 and switch two radios for a poor
guy SO2R.
I made a typo mistake stating 20 watts instead of 29 that is typically my
case. On the K3 for tuning purposes I limit the output when pressing tune to
20 watts.
