- Hi all, Considering an amp to replace my homebrew 4-400s. I'd like something durable, not necessarily a California kilowatt and self-contained (no external HV PS). The more portable, the better. I ge

- I have an Ameritron AL-1200. You can touch 1.5KW legal (USA) limit on every band, and it's run a lot of contests in perhaps 15 years of use. So far it's been trouble free. I think the 3CX1200A7 is a

- Hi Kelly, Just like K5TR's experience, we have had 100% success using both the AL-1500 and AL-1200 amplifiers for contest service. No problems at all. I know the KC1XX team also uses several Ameritro

- We've been using a Ameritron AL-1200. It is full legal limit, and is a very forgiving amp. It will loaf along all day without straining itself. Only downside is that it is a heavy devil. 70 pounds II

- I use, AL1500s All of them 100%. Has more power than legally possible, it just yawns at the RTTY contests. Tube is so over rated it will last a life time, Only drawback is the manual tune, it is not

- Hi Kelly I have a QRO HF2500. Purchased new on eBay, and it is a very nice amp. There are pictures on the QRO web site, and it includes a vacuum realy for QSK operation. I also have an Ameritron AL-1

- I also like the AL-1500, although the blower is a little loud when set on HIGH. The amp requires about 50W of drive for full output, so you have plenty of headroom with a 100W output rig, especially

- I would like to echo what others have said about the Ameritron AL-1200. I have had mine since early in 1985 (serial # 089). It has been used in many, many contests both at my QTH and elsewhere withou
