All Alpha amps ever made are key down amps. I can attest to that truth
since 1978.
I have a Henry 3KX that is and has been since 1986.
I can't speak for the others. There really is no need for Elecraft to build
a key down amp.
They would only be redeveloping the wheel. That is foolish if you are
building cutting edge transceivers that have best in class receivers.
I own my K3 because they built the best receiver. I don't expect them to be
my big amp company.
I am delighted that they built a small amp that knocked the 30L-1 out after
50 years.
If you want to buy a great radio you buy the best receiver first. It's
wonderful that the transmitters come along with them these days.
Everything else comes later. Mix and match folks. These guys can't be
everything to every dreamer out there.
73, Bill N2WL
