That looks ideal, Bob, particularly for UK use where our licensed power 
output is restricted to 400W (26dBW). Rated at 1 KW pep SSB out.; 900 W 
pep CW out (typ.), two-thirds output when driven with a K2 exceeds our 
maximum.  I suspect the main problem will be limiting the power to 
comply with our licence.
