Looking at HRO the price difference is more like $400 when you
compare the HRO sale price and the Ameritron list price. Since
the Ameritron amplifiers are typically discounted 10% from list,
the real difference will probably be around $500.
The real comparison should be with the HL2.5-Kfx (1500 watts out
and no six meters). In that case the, ALS-1300 delivers 80% of
the power (down 1 dB) for half the price. That makes it a real
bargain.
