I still have my 12 inch Post slide rule, but I no longer have it on my belt.
I also have my 5 inch Post, but it is no longer in my shirt pocket.
Those days are gone, but there "was a time" when they were required

Look for a used RF Concepts or Mirage (pre-MFJ) brick amp that produces 
150W with 2W of drive. They are rare, but great amps.

Don't kid -- it is a good request and I will double down on it.

Now, it does not need to be a KXPA100-2, I would be happy with something like a 
KXPA80-2 or some other reasonable power level boost.

So, Elecraft, how about a 80 to 100 watt 2-meter brick-style amp that works 
with the KX3 with 2-meters and the K3 with 2-meters or with my 2 meter Yaesu HT.

Yes, I know these can be bought elsewhere but there is something special about 
the "Made By Elecraft" label!!
