Michael, You might consider a RM Italy model HLA150-v HF power amp. I don't know much about them; however, I've purchased, but not yet received -sound of drumming fingers-, a used one from Dale, WT4T for $250. I think that price is about what you'd expect to pay on eBay. Just a thought. I know of many more amplifiers that are more expensive but I won't take up the bandwidth with those here.
