In my humble opinion, a suitable alternative to the Corsair-II is
the currently available Elecraft K2 with the 100W PA.

Elecraft products are made in America, they have excellent service,
forward thinking design, a large support base, offered kit or
assembled, have excellent options, are user repairable, and fun to
operate. A lot like TenTec used to be.
I have owned two Corsair-II's, two OMNI-6+ transceivers, a
Hercules-II and a Titan-III, and these rigs were pure joy over the
many years I had them. I also have a current OMNI-7. But the TenTec
company I loved is history. While the new TenTec struggles to find
its identity, product line and service strategy, Elecraft is an
excellent stand in. I own a K1, KX3, K3, KPA500, KAT500, P3 and all
have been a joy to operate.
