We used several KPA-500 amplifiers on the Swains Island NH8S DXpedition and they performed flawlessly under 24/7 use for 9 days straight in hot and humid tent conditions. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Thorne <rtho...@rthorne.net> To: Elecraft Reflector <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2013 08:48:52 -0500 Subject: [Elecraft] KPA-500 in Contest Conditions
Hows the KPA-500 holding up under contest conditions for SSB and CW? I've read the reviews on eham but there was only one that referenced performance in contest conditions (and it was favorable). I'm curious if the temp stays down and if power is lost as it heats up?
