Would the AL82 or HF2500 be equipped with full QSK keying loop input and ouput? Or would I need to build or buy additional equipment to have the same QSK performance as the Centurion or Titan III?

Ten Tec sadly may as well throw in the towel and get out of the amp business. Let's see--I can pay $3200 for a Centurion with an inferior power supply or I can pay $2200 for a new AL82 from Ham Station with a power supply that runs rings around the Centurion. It's a no brainer.

I can buy a Titan III, or for almost $1000 less get a Command HF2500 that is built better, looks better, and runs cleaner due it its use of triodes instead of tetrodes.
