I was heartened to see Wayne’s response to this rumor.  It seems inceivable 
that Elecraft would offer such a product, much less one designed by someone 
else.   Big amps are about being loud, busting pileups,  .  When receivers were 
less sensitive and sophisticated, e.g. digital filters, digital noise 
reduction, etc., you needed power to get in the front ends of DX receivers.  We 
don’t need that power anymore except to contest, i.e. blow out the ops with 
less power.  To me this don’t seem like the Elecraft ethic.  They aren’t QRP 
snobs, and they seem to value skill, intelligence, and cunning, rather than 
brute power.   Whole big amp thing struck me as odd.
