I suspect many were aware of FlexRadio and 4O3A teaming up to build and
market an SSPA. Just came across a nice little video. Not sure how long ago
it was posted or when amp will be available. The video mentions some
interesting feature including hardware pre-correction and diplexer HPF/LPF
to knock down known issues with harmonic generation from SSPA's.
No mention of price but I would anticipate it will be more than the SPE
2K-FA. My guess is ~$7000+ (+).

I thought they previously mentioned plans were for BLF188XR's. I suspect
they are using this version of the NXP MRF1K50 (ceramic not plastic)

Would be curious if anyone has heard anything from Dishtronix and if he is
planning anything new for the Alpha line or the Prometheus.
