One reason Elecraft (or any other manufactor of kits) would be unlikely to
offer tube amps is that they don't want builders putting "der fusin blowing
fingers" in a rig with a kilovolt B plus supply. Or multi kv supply for
high power (QROo?) amps. One big advantage of solid state rigs. But I
still can and do blow the fuses.
