Can anyone in this esteemed group recommend an amplifier for conducting this radiated H field immunity test (30 Hz - 100 kHz)? Any assistance is appreciated.

Although McIntosh doesn't rate their amp up to 100 KHz, it still works good enough to drive the required levels. (A real testament to conservative design!) I have also used much older MC-60's back in the days of RS01. These were 60 Watt tube units. Solar also makes a 100 Watt amp, the 6552-1A. I currently have a Solar 8850-1 Power Sweep Generator. This unit can drive the RS101 levels, but it violates the step size and sweep speed specifications of 462. I am also less than happy with its reliability. Maybe after I mod the hell out of it, and get a few months of continuous operation, I'll be able to recommend this instrument.
