I don't understand what you mean by "export" model. We can and could buy an
amp that will produce power way over the limit. We just can't transmit over
the limit. A Henry 2K will output 1500W and a 3K much more.

A 2500W amp driven at 60W to produce legal power is cleaner then an exciter
and amp pushed to the limits.

The only rule I know of is that the amp won't have ten meters, and you will
need to produce a ham license to get a ten meter kit.
