Tony

I believe you are mistaken.  I spent some time talking to Eric at Dayton and
also to Dick K4XU, the semiconductor applications engineer involved in the
design.  They left me with a firm impression the amp has an auto-tune atu
built in, together with a switch mode psu.  The 800W version is to be
available in part constructed kit form and also fully built.  Timescales
appear to Fall 05.  A full 1500W is also planned and availability will lag
the 800W version by a few months.  The 1.5kW amp will have an external psu
on which the amp can stand.  Overall size of the amp is approx 80% the size
of an Alpha 87A, with which it shares similar styling.

The 800W version is also planned to be field upgradable to the 1.5 kW spec.
