[Amps] Dedicated RF

[W2XJ]

It is really no different than tube amps. In either case the amp must be 
designed to do the job. Many tube amps can not do RTTY or digital at 
legal limit. Those that can are not inexpensive. There is no difference 
in designing a key down CCS tube amp or a solid state amp. In either 
case there will be some over design as some will evaluate it.
