The auto-operate function will return the amplifier to the OPERATE mode automatically after each protection trip, saving time and avoiding manual switching.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No tuner needed.<\/strong><br \/>\nNo external antenna tuner is required as long as the antenna VSWR is 3:1 or lower. The amplifier will perform the functions of an antenna tuner, enabling you to change antennas faster and use them over wide frequency ranges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A durable amplifier.<\/strong><br \/>\nThis amplifier is both user-friendly and self-monitoring. It is designed to safely withstand up to 240 W of reflected power, up to 100 milliseconds of drive spikes (RF \u201ctails\u201d after a PTT or KEY release), and even operator tuning errors. It is also capable of operating at more than half its designed output power at only 75% of nominal line (mains) voltage. Because it can tolerate deep voltage drops (down to zero for 10 milliseconds) and 15% line voltage spikes, it is particularly suited for use in portable environments, such as field days and DXpeditions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LED bar-graph display.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe upper LED bar-graph always reads peak forward power while the lower LED bar-graph is for the reflected power. LED warning indicators are provided for abnormal conditions of grid 1, grid 2, and plate parameters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Antenna selection.<\/strong><br \/>\nTwo antenna outputs are selectable on the front panel of the amplifier.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Efficient tuning.<\/strong><br \/>\nAntenna matching can be achieved in less than 10 seconds and at a quarter of nominal output power, which produces lower risk of interference to other stations and greater safety to the amplifier components.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transceiver-independent.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe amplifier operates without special signaling from the transceiver; it needs only \u201cground on TX\u201d and 60 W RF drive power to operate at full output power.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Input matching.<\/strong><br \/>\nBroadband input matching circuitry offers excellent loading characteristics for the driving transceiver, from 1.8MHz to 30MHz.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Single tube operation.<\/strong><br \/>\nA single Svetlana 4CX800A (GU74B) high-performance ceramic-metal tetrode with plate dissipation of 800W (forced air cooling, grid-driven) is used for maximum efficiency.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nPermanent monitoring and protection<br \/>\nof the plate and grids currents.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Bias Optimizer minimizes heat dissipated by the tube, assuring tube longevity.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nHigh voltage protection.<\/strong><br \/>\nDesign of the high-voltage power supply eliminates the danger of turn-on transients affecting sensitive devices connected to the same line (mains) circuit. Moreover, the amplifier can be configured to accommodate any of 8 nominal line voltages between 100 and 240 V, 50 or 60 Hz.<\/p>\n<p>Band inclusion.<br \/>\nThe amplifier can be shipped with 10 and 12-meter capability disabled as required by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), for United States users.
