Re: [Amps] Solid State Amps

[Mike <k4gmh@arrl.net>]

Hello,

Please post on the reflector as others also are interested in the same topic.

I'm going to have to build an amp. (another for the SO2R position).  A 
solid state amp would be very efficient by not having to tune each time 
going to a different band or another part of a band.  On the upper 
frequencies, SteppIR beams are used so SWR would not be a problem.  My 
questions are roughly the same as Tom's and whether the next amp is solid 
state or not will be influenced by the answers.
