Guys

the problem here is not who use PL259 or what coaxial is using. I think
Peter and most of us, and mostly if you do contests, is not that, we are
using good coax and connectors over the years and no problem with other
radios or amplifiers, thats what Peter said.

If you are in a contest, you prepear your station to not fail. Robust
radios and amplifiers, not only pretty ones

Hopefully guys in USA will have this problem solved *easily*

But what about if you dont live in USA?  I didnt buy Expert 1.3K amplifier
because many owners told me about it´s fail. Is very expensive and dificult
to deal with customs to take it to USA and back to Uruguay to repair it.

So, KPA1500 is a robust amplifier?  Of course always will be a problem, but
is 1% or 25% of the cases?

And I dont want parts sent by Elecraft to fix it, I want an amp that not
fail
