If you checked your QST for this month, you will find on page 115 a full page add for Palstar's roll out of a KW solid state amp. Palstar is another entry into the solid state amplifier productions. This company was known for good antenna tuners and I was surprised that they made the leap in to solid state. This model is a one KW PEP offering and operates every band from 160 to six, the unit comes in two pieces, one for the power supply and the other for the deck. This unit is offered for $3495 from HRO, personally it is overpriced for what you get in terms of power and it comes without an antenna tuner. I think for the value the Elecraft is a much better choice, less money and full legal limit. Revue my write up on it on this site, it just makes good sense and money sense to shop around.
