Thats a bit too close for even a 1200W amp. Might be fine for something in the SB-200/AL-80 size amp.

Size the fuse at 2 to 2.5 times the actual peak current, not steady state key down.

For what it's worth, I see that there are a lot of inexpensive 5KV 0.75-1.0 amp glass fuses listed on ebay for microwave oven use. I assume these would also work in a legal ham amp?
