REPLY:

RTTY contesting may not be true CCS but it's not exactly  ICAS either.
I have had many amps rated 1500 watts ICAS (Ameritron, Command, ICOM,
SPE, ACOM and others I can't remember) and none of the hold up at
legal limit during a RTTY contest. The only amp I have owned that does
is an Alpha 9500, and of course my homebrew 8877 which was
intentionally overbuilt just for RTTY.

For what it's worth.
