Kester now sells a line of "No Clean" solder that leaves less residue

better) but it's good enough for most work.

If you only need a few outputs, you could probably cobble together something
that uses the free software but is simpler and cheaper. Contact me if you're

Ed,
Not seeing that here. SWR value unchanged at 10, 20, 30, 35 watts of
drive. Suggest you test into a dummy load to see if the problem goes
away, which would suggest some issue with power level into the feedline
or antenna.

Elecraft's published specs rate the KPA-1500 for 1500 watts
h the KPA1500 turned off and phone situated 3 feet from the power

amplifier raises the noise level by 12 DB to 40 DB - a 12 DB difference.

The most important difference between the Elecraft KPA1500 and the
