[Elecraft] K3 PA3000.. you can dream, can't you?

Fun stuff - I'm not quite looking for the KPA1000, but this is where I'd ultimately like to go design and homebrew-wise if I could try, someday.. maybe. (I saw QEX had an article Oct/2006 for a tokyo-style amp - these hams based theirs on that design)

If interested there's a guy named Yuri near Seattle who has a board with 12 MRF- 150s on it that he tested I think with 25W drive for 1.1KW output. I don't recall what the power supply was. Think he wanted something like $350 for it. Add may still be on QRZ.com. -

With that kind of drive requirement, you could skip the 100 watt amp on the K2 or K3 and go directly to about 700 watts out using the QRP versions for about the same cost. 73 Rick K7MW LaConner, WA On Feb 11, 2009, at 1:38 PM, Greg - AB7R wrote: If interested there's a guy named Yuri
