[Elecraft] KPA1500

[Jim Brown]

What seems to be missing from this discussion is that, because the 
KPA1500 uses a switched-mode power supply, the combined weight of the RF 
deck and the power supply is about 37#, about half the weight of most 
other legal limit amplifiers with their power supply.  When I needed to 
move the power supplies for my Ten Tec Titan amps, I slid them from the 
shelf under my operating desk onto a rolling chair. I can't even lift, 
let alone carry, the 87As that are on my operating desk. I got help from 
a neighbor ham carrying them in. Perhaps that might be a solution for 
others.
