Hello Jim,

Read the web page on it, it says no LPF as well as a few other items are missing.

I built one from the Russian guys and I am happy with it, but you will be suppressed on how many things you will have to build and add to the mix.

It most certainly does include a LPF! I also talked to them at Dayton. A
built in tuner is an option.

Seems to me the kit without the tuner was around $2600.00

It is also missing LPF (Low Pass Filter) and that is most important, You
will need a minimum of 6 filters. Additionally you will need either a 6
position wafer switch or will need to build communication path to you your
exciter for filter selection. Perhaps other hardware.

With all of the discussion recently about SS amps, here
is one that might be worth checking out:

http://rf-kit.de/en/2k_Kit.php

RF-KIT, a firm based in Germany, was exhibiting a legal-limit HF Amplifier
Kit at the Hamvention. The unit on display was using two LDMOS power devices
and sported a 7" color touchscreen for amplifier control and status. The kit
includes everything necessary to build the amplifier except the Raspberry Pi
3 CPU, and three fans. The company's literature states that it can be built
in less than a day.
