Will the new OM2000A+ from Array Solutions handle 1500W in RTTY contests?
It appears so from the website: https://www.arraysolutions.com/om-2000a .
It's just a few hundred dollars cheaper than the OM2500A but much lighter.
The 2000A claims silent QSK but I don't see that in the 2500A description.
The 2000A seems like an updated combination of my KPA500 and 87A less the
automatic power levels that the K3/KPA500 combination has and no warm-up.

My AL-1200 ran and my ACOM 2000A runs all day at 1500 watts out RTTY
contesting with, for example, 1400 contacts in 24 hours.
