I think Virgil's doing a great job bringing these projects and kits out,
but ... I enjoyed building a HFPacker amp, but didn't keep it long.
I found that it was *very* sensitive to taking too much input,
also to a mismatched antenna. I blew the MOSFETs in the first week
of (what I thought was) gentle use. I replaced them, made sure it
all worked, and sold it. I bought a KPA100 instead, and never 
looked back. If you've got a K2, you just can't beat the integration.
