Folks, if we did introduce a 1500 W solid state amp similar to our KPA500 in operation, what features etc would be important?
Full break-in, as clean as a good tube amp, legal limit through 6M with 50% duty cycle (to support keydown modes like JT65, JT9). The general operational characteristics of a KPA500. A matching or integral antenna tuner. Light weight for airline travel -- IF the SMPS that would be required to do this was so quiet that it could not be heard on an antenna 20-30 ft away in a quiet location. :)
