IIRC it was about 2 and a half years ago they showed the first prototypes which you can see at:

www.n6ie.com/Elecraft.html

They claimed that they production was being held up by FCC type-acceptance red tape, but in truth, the then-secret K3 project was taking up their time and the KPA 800 and KPA 1500 were put on the shelf. Good to hear they're working on them again.

Interesting - wasn't it three or four years ago Elecraft showed off the amp?
Does that mean they'll actually be selling it this time?

"It would sure seem that TT could kill two birds with one stone by allowing
3rd parties to write
code for their radios."

I agree the other fine American radio manufactures seem to be have huge
amounts of success doing it. Just wonder what TT is afraid of? Trade
secrets maybe. Na cant be that there already out classed in performance.
Hey I hear from a extremely great source that Elecraft will have there new
amp's at Dayton yes 2 solid state amps. Yo Ten Tec get on the stick !!!! I
love TenTec stuff nut i am starting to really question why. Jeff
