I recall sometime ago enquiring of Ron Stone GW3YDX at Vine (UK Acom sales) and being told that the 1010 doesn't have vacuum relays and to go with the 1000 if I was serious about QSK. I did just that and fully support what Rick says below about the 1000. Stewart Rolfe, GW0ETF Rick Tavan

ARRL has reviewed the Acom 1000, 1010 and 2000. See QST or the ARRL website. The answer to all this discussion is found in this pair of sentences from the 1010 review in December, 2006: So what does the 1010 give up in exchange for its svelte packaging and lower price? The short answer is

Dunno about the 1010 but the ACOM 1000 works beautifully with my K3 on full QSK. I think but am not sure that the 1010 is just a recent update of the 1000. At any rate, I can't imagine them regressing. The 1000 exudes quality. For a manually tuned, not-quite-full power amp with a warmup cycle,
