Ameritron's New Amp: The ALS-1300 Info

In the market for a fine little Amplifier?  The ALS-1300 may be right for you.

Ameritron 1200W Output Solid State Amplifier 1200 Watts PEP Output, Instant bandswitching, no tuning, no warm-up, SWR protected, 1.5-22 MHz . . . Quiet Variable-Speed Cooling System . . . PEP Forward/Reflected Metering . . . PA Balance /ALC Metering and LED Indicator . . . Front Panel Band and Error LEDs . . .


AMERITRON ALS-1200 is a solid state near legal limitTM FET no-tune Amplifier. Get instant bandswitching, no tuning, no warm-up, no tubes to baby and no fuss!


Reliability of the ALS-1300 is insured by using eight rugged MRF-150 power FETs. Ameritron’s eight FETs are mounted on the dual heavy duty heat sink. They are properly arranged to spread out the heat over a large surface, something that other amplifiers using a single power device cannot do. Some FETs actually are a package of several transistors in one large case. This concentrates all of the heat in one small package. They not only are more difficult to cool, if one transistor fails they all have to be replaced.

The ALS-1300 RF deck operates from 50 Volts for efficient, low distortion linear RF power service. It’s cooled by a whisper quiet cooling fan. Fan speed is regulated by temperature sensors, assuring minimum noise for adequate cooling.


This sounds like the Amplifier that would be on any ham’s wish list. 1200 Watts is nothing to sneeze at. I’d be happy to know I was putting out 500 Watts, but if I had a choice? 1200 would win out.
