OM-2000+ 2,000 Watts $3.379.00 At the US legal limit, it's $2.25/Watt. It's also a tube amp while you show/compare it against the list of solid state amps. Cathy, the PW-1 is a 1000W amplifier per Ic

Several of the newer LDMOS designs are using *two* active devices rated at 1500W each. They are not nearly as stressed as older devices run into saturation and should provide significantly better IMD

And none of the new design amplifiers from Eastern Europe use the 8877 - they all appear to use Chinese tubes of uncertain pedigree or quality. 73, ... Joe, W4TV _____________________________________

I agree Jay and Joe; tube amps and replacement tubes will be around for quite a while to come; longer than most of us old geezers on this amps forum! They produce excellent bang for buck and operatio

Hi all, just a quick comment about a point touched by Joe: Several of the newer LDMOS designs are using *two* active devices rated at 1500W each. I'm not aware of any LDMOSFETs rated at 1500W output

Manfred, So would it be better to use 4 or or more devices with somewhat lower ratings for linear operation? Is there a cheaper option to use simpler heat sinks that don't have to be carefully machin

There was such a device listed on here just a few days ago, rated at 2KW "carrier" MAX for $250 ea. A pair running 1500 out would be very conservative. It's a given that running them at max would res

I concur with your more conservative design strategy here Jim. The latest MRFX1K80H devices are certainly a step in the right direction for high-power RF amplifier devices; but limitations remain par

SPE should be in a good position to follow the 'multiple devices, under run' approach. Their still current 2K-FA amplifier uses 6 pallets, each pallet having a single 300 W, MRF151G, transistor. Then
