It looks like there might be a business opportunity for an external 100W amp which has very low distortion. Via auxbus it could be slaved to a K3, K3S, or a KX3. How does the KXPA100 stack up?

Re: Overdriving speech processors

K1N team member Glenn Johnson, W0GJ, said, “It seems like everyone tries to turn up their microphone gain and speech processors to overdrive and it creates splatter and makes it almost impossible and if we could somehow magically eliminate all speech processors, we could probably double or triple our rate."[1] He also said that European stations were worse offenders than US stations.
