[Elecraft] Question for UK members (PSU and Amp)

[d.cutter at ntlworld.com]

Don't have experience of the psu, but a friend built the amplifier quite easily.  He had some problems with low mains supply at another friend's QTH, but it worked fine from his home QTH.  I run the heaters of another Linear Amp from separate stab supply. The case is all steel making it robust but very heavy.  You should check whether these amplifiers comply with regulations.  Anything sold in Eu must be CE marked to show compliance with regs.    The low cost comes at a price IMHO.
