My Alpha 87A went to Alpha systems in Colorado for repair of Fault 16 that was occurring within a few seconds of turning it on. After paying $1500 for their repair it was returned and immediately whe

When you say "Alpha systems"... do you mean AlphaRFSystems? Have you tried Brad's K0HM Electronic Repair or reaching out to Glenn Pladsen (AE0Q) gm5bkc@gmail.com? Brad Focken 6288 Gunshot Pass Dr. Co

Jerry, Thanks for your reply on this problem I am having with my 87A. Yes, the repairs attempted were by AlphaRFSystems. I have sent many emails to service@ AlphaRFSystems.com but now Glenn is not re

Hello Herb, Glenn is not the best person to work on the 87a. I can take a look at it if you like or I can help you trouble shoot the amp. The fault 16 could be a number of things. Do you have a compu

Brad is by far the best person to work with on repairing an 87A. Nobody knows more about Alpha products than Brad. That said, I think it's unfair to characterize the current regime at Alpha as "thiev
