[Elecraft] Amplifier status

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Don is a bit off the mark on this one. :-) We're probably closer to 
May-June, based on current parts deliveries and production start up work.

I have been receiving a flood of requests for info on this project. To 
be honest, I have have not had the time to answer each one individually. 
(Were busy here at Elecraft HQ ;-) Instead we have been focusing on 
getting everything ready for Field Test and production. Both the 800W 
-and- 1500W versions are up and running. (Listen for me on he air..) We 
are in the final process of getting all of the certification paperwork 
into the FCC. (This just covers the usual anti-CB rules: 15 dB or less 
gain, reach rated power out with at least 50W of drive and no 12-10M out 
of the box.)

I can't post any more details at this time, but I will in the next 
months as I have more time and concrete details, pricing info etc.

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
