FCC rules on amplifiers have been prohibiting any with that low an input
because they would be appropriate for illegal use on CB.
Since the amplifier is linear that 1.5 KW out amplifier that took 85
watts for full drive would put 176 watts with 10 watts drive and the
tubes should last virtually forever.
Its an area where homebrew reigns. I think there is amplifier module for
the K2 that has gotten through FCC approval.
