<I have a very rare Mirage/KLM 1.8-30MHz solid state mobile amp that is 
<100 watts in and 800 watts outs.? My understanding is very few were 
<made, no manual on the internet and FCC made them stop making them 
<because they will amplify "anywhere" between 1.8 and 30 MHz!? Is there a 
<manual or such around on this amp? Understand it takes 85 amps to run 
<this thing.? Any information on this amp would be greatly appreciated.

<73,

## M2 may well have the manual you want.   On a similar note,  does it even have any 
relay switched, or band switched  LP  filters  inside it ??  You need at least  6 x LP filters
to cover 160-10m. 

##  If it typ operates at 50% eff, and assuming you had at least 14 vdc under load to back of
the mirage SS amp,  it would suck  114 A  with a key down cxr.   Perhaps  40-50A  while talking on SSB.
