Phil,

I use a K3 with internal transverter for 2m driving a LDmos power amplifier to 
good effect.  If buying a commercial amp then consider a BEKOHLV series that 
uses the freescale device with full protection.  Taking the amateur route 
building one is relatively easy and there are kits and boards available for the 
DUBUS design by F1JRD,  look up the QST for October 2012 or the W6PQL site 
where you will find full information.

May I suggest that before buying an amp that you review the system that you 
intend to use as money spent on a good antenna and low loss feeder are a better 
investment than an amp.
