[Elecraft] Amp comparisons

[Igor Sokolov]

I have used SPE 1K  with my K3 for almost 8 years. I am now using SPE 
1.3 with both K3 and KX3 connected for SO2R. No issues with integration 
at all (just coax and  3 wire control cable), cheaper then Elecraft, 
weight is under 10 Kg even with antenna tuner built in, SO2R with just 1 
amp, 4 antennas switchable by the amplifier itself (another level of 
integration). IMHO KX3 + SPE 1.3 is the best combo for expeditions of 
field operation. I really like Elecraft but as far as amplifier is 
concerned  SPE is better for my needs.
