I would probably be interested in this since I bought the K3/10
except that I have already bought an EB-27 kit for a 18w/300w PA from CCI.
http://www.communication-concepts.com/appnotes/EB27A300Sharp.pdfWith 12w drive it will likely only reach 200w output, but my K3/10
has 16w output up to 15m; 8w 10/6m. I will try driving the EB-27
with the barefoot K3/10 to start with, but am looking at getting the
TAPR Pennywhistle amplifier kit 20w HF/6m. It will only require
about 1w from the K3 on all frequencies. Will I save anything over a
KPA-100? Maybe not. Wonder how the new 100w amp will be priced
compared to the KPA-100?
For those that are curious: The EB-27 cost me $127; transistors
$105; misc parts $150. The Pennywhistle is $77+shipping. Total approx. $400.
I already bought a used Mirage A-1015G 10w/150w 6m amp. So I will
have 300w HF and 150w 6m vs. 100w HF/6m. Kind of a poor-man's
KPA-500. OK, not really comparable.
