The auto-operate function (when enabled) maintains the amplifier in the OPERATE mode for you, thus avoiding unnecessary manual operations.<\/p>\n<p>No antenna tuners<\/p>\n<p>No heavy outboard antenna tuners required for antenna VSWRs up to about 3:1. Your amplifier will enable you to change antennas virtually instantaneously and allow you to use your antennas over wider frequency ranges.<\/p>\n<p>User-friendly<\/p>\n<p>An amplifier that is both user-friendly and that looks after itself. It is designed to safely withstand up to 400 W reflected power, up to 100 milliseconds duration of drive spikes, drive RF \u201ctails\u201d after a PTT or KEY release, operator\u2019s inadvertent tuning errors etc.<\/p>\n<p>The amplifier also will not cease to function with a \u201csoft\u201d AC mains and will deliver more than half power at only 85% of nominal mains voltage. It can withstand voltage drops (down to zero Volts) for up to 10 milliseconds and can tolerate 15% mains voltage spikes, which is especially important on Field Day, during DXpeditions, and at portable operating events where emergency power is relied upon.<\/p>\n<p>OLED comment display<\/p>\n<p>All amplifier status indications are explained via detailed text displayed on the dot matrix, high brightness and contrast OLED display.
