Addressed to KXPA100 owners, or KXPA100 manufacturers:
I was showing photos (from the Elecraft web site) of the KXPA100 amplifier to a
friend of mine (the amplifier is next on my to-buy list). He is a relatively
recent ham operator but a General class holder of way back in the 1960s. Last

Hi Phil,
The slide switch we used is very reliable, with a long predicted life. We used
a slide switch because it is less likely to be activated accidentally than a
push-button switch (e.g., with the amplifier in a car trunk, surrounded by
flotsam).

Thanks Wayne --- as usual, Elecraft has an excellent and justifiable choice for
their decision. No flotsam in my car trunk though, actually no car trunk, just

There are good slide switches available. The hood on our stove
has slide switches for the fans and light. It was installed in
1994 and we are still using the original switches. I will note
that when they fill up with grease from cooking, it is necessary
to clean them out with a spritz of WD-40.
My KXPA100 also has a slide switch. I confirmed that it works properly
however,
when used with the KX3 and "*KX3 to KXPA100 Integrated Adapter Cable"*
The amplifier is powered up and down with the KX3 power button's. So you
will not be sliding the switch.

I am a ret. EE and years ago I bought a new Drake 2B. When I sent the
warranty in, I mentioned the slide switches. I got a nice letter back from a
Drake engineer who assured me that the slide switches had been selected to
be most reliable and I should have no issues with them. And I never had any

I never had a problem with the slide switches in my Swan 500-c either.
