## $7K US funds translates into one helluva lot more in any country outside
the USA.
Just checked, its $9800.00 here in Canada....+ tax, + shipping. Thats a
lotta money for no qsk,
no pin diodes, or vac relays..and no schematics.
## That german made B-26, 1.5 kw output SS amp, 160-6M, with the pair of
BLF-189 XRAs is the better deal, 72% eff,
runs cool... but still has no real qsk...20 msecs. But at least vac relays
could be retrofitted into the SS amp.
The german amp is $3450.00 US funds, including built in 2 kw auto tuner, and
your choice of 13 or 16 db,
both 100 watt CCS rated input attenuator, and also shipping. You could
easily buy TWO of the B-26s
for what one PGXL cost. https://rf-kit.de/en/
