Anyone needing a W6PQL 80w 2m linear amplifier for their KX3-2M or Elecraft transverter and want it professionally built I have the answer for you. I had already considered offering the W6PQL 80w amp fully assembled with RF output bar meter. The kit comes with attenuator that will accept up to 10w drive or a low as 50mw. For the KX3 I suggest 1-to-2w as a good drive level. I didn't finish my cost analysis but I can state cost will be approximately $100 over parts for an amp assembled by "Kits made by KL7UW". The amp will include a fan-cooled 1-inch heatsink auto-controlled by thermistor.

I cannot start assembly until November as I am totally booked until then building Down East Microwave Transverters (five in que at present). I will work up the complete costs and will have that on my website:
http://www.kl7uw.com/kits.htm

I currently offer 90-day warrantee on my workmanship building DEMI kits.

If interested contact me off the list and I will add you to my info list. Not taking orders until I have the complete costs analyzed and a price set. Thanks.

If you're not averse to soldering here is a solution which I guarantee
will be less expensive that anything Elecraft can or will produce. No
fancy Auxbus, no standing on one leg and cooking your breakfast while
singing the national anthem, it's just an amplifier with RF detect or
key line PTT.

10W in 80-100W depending on how the Toshiba S-AV36 is biased.
