Don't forget TE Systems. IMO the best available solid-state VHF/UHF amps.

That's exactly what I'm looking for -- a bare-bones, no-frills solid-state amp 
with built-in PS. Being a VHF guy, I'd love to see full legal limit amps for 
6m and 2m at a reasonable price point.

I agree with you, Lee, I think there is potentially a big market starting to 
come into being for lower-priced solid state amplifiers.
