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.
