Commander hf-2500's work ok on the high bands, just don't use them on the
low bands without modification of the toroid.

ACOM 2000a will also do fine, they do have an add on fan to help a bit if
you are long winded.

Just some advice from a long time HP RTTY contester:

Over the years I've used many amps for HP R?TTY contesting and have found
only one auto tune amp that will do legal limit RTTY without
smoke:  An Alpha 9500.  If you're serious about RTTY contesting and want an
auto bandswitching, auto tune amp, don't mess with anything else.

Other Alphas such as the 91b and the manual tune version of the 9500 are OK
too if you don't mind manual tuning.

9500 rules!  You won't be sorry.

73, Bill W6WRT
