Been looking for an amp that I could run at a low level - around 500 watts. Cost is a factor, as I might pick up the KLV-1000 for ~$500. I understand that the amp has a problem with the drive tube, as it doesn't like to be be over-driven. I was looking for an amp that could be driven with ~20 watts PEP/SSB. Not so interested in the AM aspect of it at all. Is 20 watts SSB still to much for the drive tube?
Does this amp pass scrutiny - as for emissions?
Is it a dirty bird?
Or is it designed for CB fast food?
