Because the original standard was 110/220V ... as power consumption has
increased and distribution utilities have attempted to reduce losses it
crept up to 112/224, then 115/230, 117/234 and now runs 120/240 in many
locations.

As others have commented, the amp works just fine on 110v. In my case,
every dit and dah resulted in a slight but noticeable dimming of the lights
in my shack and an adjoining room. After putting in a dedicated 220V
circuit, (not sure why we call it 220, 'cuz i think it's actually 230v) no
dimming at all, and no complaints from the better half! ;)

I am ready to order a KPA500 and wonder if anyone out there has regretted
operating one from 115-volt service.
