RM ITALY BLA600 Solid State Amplifiers
RM ITALY BLA600 Solid State Amplifiers are wideband, compact, automatic linear amplifiers for 160 through 6 meters; 1.8 to 54 MHz. Low input drive requirements (20 to 25W on 80-10 meters, 30-40W for 500W on 160m and 6m) make these amplifiers THE perfect transceiver companion! RM ITALY BLA600 amplifiers are fully automatic 500W solid-state linear amplifiers suitable for seamless integration with all modern transceivers. They utilize the rugged NXP / Freescale MRF6VP5600H 50V power MOSFET for high power and high reliability. These amplifiers are capable of all modern modulation modes. BLA600 amplifiers are fully automatic, featuring instant RF frequency-reading for band changes and fast, reliable and silent PIN diode TX-RX switching, making them ideal for CW QSK operation (separately purchased transceiver to amplifier PTT keying cable is required.) BLA600 amps have three (3) antenna outputs that are easily configurable on a per-band basis as per the user's requirements. Their RF deck is supplied by a heavy-duty linear power supply, with 240 volt AC input* (115-120 or 230 VAC capable) and utilizes an efficient active bridge rectifier with very high-grade filter capacitors to provide the PA devices with a very low noise and robust 50V DC. The amplifier's RF deck has a large heat spreader and copper heat sink which provides a very efficient cooling system. There are separate fans for the RF deck and LPF board / power supply for high duty cycle operation. Internally, all modules are mounted in a very robust and well-screened enclosure. BLA600 amplifiers feature Dual MCU control and an extensive array of protection circuits that look after the amplifier with rapid reaction time. VSWR, I/P Power, I/P Frequency, Three Temperature sensors; Transistor / Heat sink and PSU, Drain voltage / Drain current and HV PIN supply are all continuously monitored. Some thumbnail details: * Employs Freescale MRFE6VP5600 Power FETs * Drive requirements: 20-25W for 500W on 80-10m; 30-40W for 500W on 160m and 6m * Input drive from 1W to maximum of 40W (1 to 25W w/reduced output) * Power Gain: Typical 14dB +/- 1dB (80-10m) * Solid 500W Output on all modes * Dual MCU Control * Fast PIN Diode RX-TX TX-RX switching enables full QSK operation * 2x16 LCD screen for Amplifier Status * Two Separate LED displays; one for power and one for antenna VSWR * Three antenna output connectors, user-configurable * Dual large-diameter MCU controlled multispeed fans for efficient cooling * 1,200W Linear Power Supply- Highly filtered and regulated * Weight: 21.5kg (47.4 lbs.) * Quiet, 240 VAC operation **Requires a user supplied NEMA 6-15P to IEC 320-C13 Cord. (Internally resettable for 230 or 120 VAC input on jumper board under rear access panel secured with T10 torx screws) * AC Input Fuse: 5 x 20mm F LBC 250V; Fast Blow, 240 VAC 5A (included); or 230 VAC 6A (optional) or 115-120 VAC 10A (optional, with NEMA 5-15P to IEC 320-C13 15A Cord.) WARNING: Amplifier is set from the factory for 240VAC operation. Do not use a low amperage PC power supply AC cord. An IEC C-13 14AWG 15A cord is required with NEMA 6-15P for 240VAC or NEMA 5-15P for 120VAC after internal jumpers and fuse have been changed. If your HF transceiver can be set for 20 to 40 watts output, then you will be sending 500 watts to the antenna on ALL bands 160 through 6 meters using this amplifier. The real beauty is that it all happens fully automatically! There is no tuning and no band switching! Give your signal a nice boost.

ACOM 2000A Automatic HF Linear Amplifiers
ACOM 2000A Automatic HF Linear Amplifiers are the world's most advanced amplifiers designed specifically for hams. These amplifiers were the first to include fully-automatic tuning and sophisticated digital-control capabilities. ACOM's revolutionary 2000A amplifiers deliver maximum legal power in all modes and operate on all amateur HF bands 160 to 10 meters. Be sure to read the SPECIAL Note, below. These amplifiers follow your transceiver's band and frequency automatically in far less than a second. No special cables are required: Just a "dit" on CW or "AHH" on SSB is enough for instant band and band segment changes. ACOM 2000A amps break every amateur band into multiple frequency segments. The user can store up to ten (10) sets of tuning adjustments for every frequency segment - allowing individual settings for multiple antennas on each band. By completely eliminating time-consuming tune-up procedures, ACOM 2000A linear amplifiers give contesters a real edge. At the core of the ACOM 2000A is a classic HF amplifier design that employs two matched 4CX800A high-performance ceramic-metal tetrodes for maximum efficiency. ACOM uses these rigorously tested tubes with today's most advanced digital control technology to create an amplifier with outstanding performance, features and reliability. Measured third and fifth order IMD are typically 40dB and 45dB down, respectively. Typical harmonic emissions are as low as -55dBc (second) and below -70dBc (for third and above). Thus, probability of QRM, BCI or TVI is dramatically minimized. ACOM's 2000A remote diagnostic features and modular design ease fault isolation and repair. The protection system makes damaging one of these amplifiers difficult. Information on the 12 most recent protection trips is stored in an INFO BOX for remote diagnostics via phone line, PC, and Internet. Full break-in (QSK) is based on a built-in vacuum relay. Transmit/receive switching sequence is secured by a dedicated microprocessor. * Frequency Coverage: All Amateur Bands 1.8-29.7 MHz * Power Output: 1,500W PEP, 1,500W continuous carrier (the external auxiliary fan must be installed for operations of continuous carrier transmissions longer than 15 minutes * Hum and noise: Better than 35dB below rated output * Harmonics Output Suppression: Better than 50dB below rated output * Input and Output Impedance: Nominal values: 50 Ohm unbalanced output; Input circuit: broadband, VSWR less than 1.3:1, 1.8-29.7 MHz Amateur Bands (no tuning, no switching); Relay Bypass Throughput: VSWR less than 1.1:1, 1.8-29.7 MHz Amateur Bands * Automatic Tuning: Load Impedance Matching - less than 3 seconds; Band Change - less than one second; Segment Change - less than 0.2 seconds * RF Gain: 14.5dB, frequency response less than 0.5dB (50 to 60W drive power for rated output) * ALC: grid-current derived, -11V max, rear panel adjustable * Primary Power: 180-264V (200, 220 and 240V nominal taps, 10 percent tolerance), 50-60Hz, single phase, 3,500VA consumption at rated output * SPECIAL Note: Order part number AOM-2000A to wire the AC plug yourself; order part number AOM-2000A-240 for pre-wired 240 volt operation * Complies CE safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements, as well as FCC regulations * Size: W 17.3 x 19.7 x H 7.1 in.
