I have a K3/10 and live in a CCR environment. Presently I have a homebrew
dipole (66 feet of stranded copper) in the attic. It works quite well but I
would like to have more reach with CW. I am also concerned about getting RFI
into the neighbor's speakers. I would like to consider a smaller
I would add the Elecraft amplifier designed for the K3 to upgrade to a
K3/100. There aren't a lot of choices for amps that are designed for 10
watts in. You could go with any linear designed for higher power and just
get less out driving with 10 watts.

Frank and All,
There are some very good small amps out there. Tokyo Hy-Power now offers an
HL-45 that will run about 50 watts or so, and is a very good product. I
have their older version, the HL-50B, and it is a superb product as well.
It is particularly useful with the numerous little QRP
Let's say, for argument's sake, I too have a THP 1.5 (which I do not). My
work and family take up most, if not all of my time. I can only put a couple
of feet of wire to use as a antenna because of HOAs. I have 10 countries
confirmed because I don't care for QSL cards or LOTW.
Does that make it a
Dave,
I've run Drakes L4B and L-75, Yaesu FL-2100z and Commander hf2500. Never
bought one of these new.
All four are good amps if you know what you are doing when you tune and use
it. If you don't know or if you want it all automatic , then take the
automatic ones as suggested. (they are usually
...The reviews seem to favor an Acom 1000 or Tokyo Hi-Power...
I have an Acom 1000, and love it!
Almost silent in operation (including true QSK), protects itself from
everything (including me), and matches any reasonable load. Tubes not as
cheap as they have been, but still available at
I am thinking about a move up in power for my K2/100. The reviews
seem to favor an Acom 1000 or Tokyo Hi-Power. What is the collective
wisdom here? Thanks

Was over at a friends shack who is driving a Tokyo High Power 1.5
with a K2. He speaks very highly of it. He fired things up and got
through to a South African station first call on RTTY and then
switched over to SSB and used a vertical to work a ZD station I
think. Got through the pile up
