    HLA-300 Plus (brand new in factory sealed in box)

    I just bought two brand new HLA-300 Plus HF amplifiers. As it turns out, I am only going to be needing one of them. I absolutely love the amplifier, only I will not be able to install an HF rig in my mobile as I had planned. They sell for $458.76 + shipping ($25) new. Will sell for $400 +...

    Question for techs about keying a solid state amp with a key line...

    Quote: "What Band do you plan on using the amp?" Whichever band I want. I have an Extra ticket. And using the amp isn't illegal in the USA. Just manufacturing and distributing them, without certification. And yes... I am more than familiar with Tom, and his credentials. I have seen a...

    Question for techs about keying a solid state amp with a key line...

    Quote: "You are spending a lot of cash to gain 1/2 an S-unit not to mention the output will be cleaner just from the TS-480 but that's your business until it starts to splatter." Actually, the difference between 100 Watts and 400 watts is 6 dB, which equates to a full S-unit. Seems kinda...

    Question for techs about keying a solid state amp with a key line...

    Found this on another forum: "The RM Italy HLA 300 series has three ports on the back side besides the red and black power leads. Radio input, Antenna output and a Key line which is a RCA connector. If you use the SSB sense the keying has a 1 second delay or you can use the key line which...

    Question for techs about keying a solid state amp with a key line...

    I run a Kenwood TS-480SAT, and I want to use it to drive an RM Italy HLA-300 solid state amp. I know that this amp can be keyed with simple RF sensing, but it also provides a dedicated keying input on the rear of the amp, which is the way I'd like to go about keying the amp. The input is a...

    RM Italy HLA-300 10-160m amp

    Actually, if that's the case, I will probably run around 8 watts (give or take) into the low side on the amp, because I do not want more than 200W out, because of my remote autotuner. It only handles 200 PEP. So I'll run whatever brings me to the 200 ballpark on 75/80M. I went ahead and...

    RM Italy HLA-300 10-160m amp

    I should be alright then. I'm only going to use 200 watts anyway, as I am limited by my remote autotuner, which gives me a superb SWR all around. So both of the issues you mentioned should not be much of an issue for me. I am hoping that around 5 watts PEP will give me around 200 watts PEP.

    RM Italy HLA-300 10-160m amp

    Anyone have any follow-up info on how to correct any of the issues mentioned concerning this amplifier? I'm strongly considering buying one, but not sure if they are worth it, as is from the factory. I've heard a couple of them on the air on 75 meters, and they both sounded as clean as a...

    Echomax 2000

    It is not wired for anything. It was wired to a 5-pin mic plug, but I removed it to save time for the purchaser, when they get ready to wire it to their radio. What kind of rig do you have? As far as payment goes, I accept money orders or cashiers (or certified) checks. Postal money...

    common mode currents/decoupling

    I came up with a good non-conductive mast. I took a twelve foot 1 7/8 (OD) piece of schedule 80 PVC pipe, and slid a 1 1/2" diameter wooden closet rod dowel rod inside. This made it RIGID. Then I slid the whole kit and kaboodle inside the metal push up pole base. A perfect fit, and a perfect 20...

    common mode currents/decoupling

    Quote: 'Half the fun of it is in the 'doing', not the results..." While I do appreciate the sentiment, the fun for me starts the day I can stop climbing up on my roof, and start using my radio. I guess the thing that frustrates me the most, is that I keep getting TOTALLY conflicting...

    common mode currents/decoupling

    Quote: "that's only one of many reasons why the ZeroFive antennas operate so well when ground mounted because the earth ground reference + radials is "more perfect" than an elevated radial system with fewer radial elements operating independently of earth ground. when you choose to operate it...
