I came across this video he other day.

First of all I do not know how he stays in Business, It is very obvious 
who he is making amps for mostly, and the power levels 3KW,

BUT.. It is quite amazing at what he is making, like in the video is a 
3KW SS Amp that is tiny, and seems very light. 80 thru 6, no tuners 
nothing no adjusting, Thoughts?

##  Its  11m only.  They either dont install a LP filter for 11 meters, making the
wattmeter read even higher... or they do install a LP filter.   For monoband use, they
dont require a myriad of LP filters.   With no LP filter at all, the wattmeter will then 
see the harmonics as well. 

##  go to 21.20  where he shorts out the output coax...then slices right through..with a
wide open...then puts the screwdriver on the cut coax...with flames coming out of it,
and ldmos still survives.   Both a dead short..and a wide open will produce an infinite
high swr. 

##  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMVuWqM9BuM  here, the same fellow really gets
into making flames, sparks.  It still survives. 

##  story I got was he buys the boards in kit form, from that fellow  from 4x4 land, who sells what ever 
you want.   Then just configure it how u want, with as many modules, and combiners as you want. 
Then add  LP filters  for only the bands you require.   That fellow in russia also sells kits, and sub 
assemblies, etc.   They will no doubt latch onto the latest and greatest 1.8 kw  ldmos. 

later... Jim   VE7RF
