Tim, thanks for that info. On an unrelated topic, I am working on a big project here and needed some last minute supplies that are not available locally. Ordered the needed material from DX Engineering and it was here today in WV, the next day after I placed the order. Fantastic service that moved my project along on schedule (4 x 7 el 6M EME array). Same for my low band rx supplies last fall. Fantastic service. Thanks to your staff.

I built one from the Russian guys and I am happy with it, but you will be suppressed on how many things you will have to build and add to the mix. 73, Bruce, W8HW =============== -----Original Message----- From: Jim W7RY Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2017 21:04 To: [email protected] ; Jim Monahan ; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Amps] RF-KIT SS AMP It most certainly does include a LPF! I also talked to them at Dayton. A built in tuner is an option. Seems to me the kit without the tuner was around $2600.00 73 Jim W7RY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2017 8:48 AM To: Jim Monahan ; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Amps] RF-KIT SS AMP It is also missing LPF (Low Pass Filter) and that is most important, You will need a minimum of 6 filters. Additionally you will need either a 6 position wafer switch or will need to build communication path to you your exciter for filter selection. Perhaps other hardware. 73, Bruce, W8HW ========================= -----Original Message----- From: Jim Monahan Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2017 08:26 To: [email protected] Subject: [Amps] RF-KIT SS AMP With all of the discussion recently about SS amps, here is one that might be worth checking out: http://rf-kit.de/en/2k_Kit.php RF-KIT, a firm based in Germany, was exhibiting a legal-limit HF Amplifier Kit at the Hamvention. The unit on display was using two LDMOS power devices and sported a 7" color touchscreen for amplifier control and status. The kit includes everything necessary to build the amplifier except the Raspberry Pi 3 CPU, and three fans. The company's literature states that it can be built in less than a day.
