[Elecraft] New to the reflector/100W pa question

[Dave Van Wallaghen]

Hi Eric,

First, welcome to the list. You will certainly find a wealth of knowledge
here.

I have done exactly what you are asking and have loved this configuration.
The only difference is that I put the KPA100 amp and KAT100 ATU in a
separate EC2 enclosure. 

Lyle, KK7P has a very nice website dedicated to doing this project:
http://www.kk7p.com/k2kpa100.html

It is full of pictures and very well documented and covers putting just the
KPA100 in an EC2 and the KPA100/KAT100 combination.

Hope this helps and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. You
can contact me off list if you prefer.

Take care & 73,
Dave W8FGU
