[Elecraft] kpa1500?

[Jim Wiley]

Check the ACOM website. They have a setup that uses a hybrid coupler to 
parallel 3 of their ACOM 2000A amplifiers.  I know from experience that 
an ACOM 2000A will deliver about 2300 watts forward power before it 
kicks off on excess grid current.  It would do more if the guard circuit 
was readjusted, but what's the point?   I think that setup is for their 
Italian customers.  6000 watts is a full S-unit above a 1500 watt rig.
