Mal,

      Thanks for the good words, I believe it was one of your comments that emboldened me to ask for 200W erp.
Bob W2ZM  (WE2XGR/6) is currently working on a 4CX10,000 amplifier for 500 kHz (and LF as well). I'm  working a solid state amp that should deliver 1.2-1.5 kW output for WE2XGR/1, and I wouldn't be surprised if Jay (WE2XGR/2) has some big secret project in the works.

     Listen for us this Fall/Winter!
