The correct link for the current B26 amplifier kit is:

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

The web site can be a bit confusing and lead you down the wrong path.

I've put 2 of the kits together in the last year.  I took one of the amps to Bonaire for the last CQ SSB & CW.  It fits in a Pelican case and comes in at 49.5 pounds. just under the dreaded 50 pound limit.

When I bought my amp in 2017, it cost about $3500 which included the ATU and shipping.  You'll have to check the exchange rate for today's cost.

Anyone going to Orlando Hamcation in a few weeks will be able to see an amp in the flesh.

reviews are very positive.  http://www.rf-kit.de/

Why are solid state amps so expensive?  Even the kits are lots of
dollars.   What makes them so?
