Tokyo Hy-Power Linear Amplifiers


Here are a few shots of the Tokyo Hy-Power Line-up, including some new models.  These amps are truely things of beauty.  When you study them, all you can see is attention to design and detail.  I would love to get my hands on one or more of these.

 

Here is the New Tokyo Hy-Power HL-1.1Kfx.  It's a 600 watt HF amp with built in switching power supply.

 

 

Here are the specs of the HL-1.1Kfx in detail:

 

 

Here is a clos-up of the HL-1.1Kfx filter board:

 

 

Here is a Tokyo Hy-Power SWR/Power meter they were using to demonstrate with.  This isn't a product that is for sale.  They said it was something they just "threw together"

 

 

This is the HL-2.5Kfx, 1.5KW HF amplifier.  It has auto or manual band switch, Nice meters and a digital display that also tells you what your operating band is, internal temperature, and a few other details

 

 

Here's an inside shot of one of the other amps.  Unfortunately, I forgot which one this is :confused1:

 

 

Here is the new HL-45B, 45watt HF amplifier that is intended to be used with QRP rigs:

 

 

This is the HL-350V, 300+ watt 2 meter VHF amplifier. 

 

 

This is the new HL-500V, 500 watt 2 meter VHF amplifier.

 

 

Inside the HL-500V:

 

 

Both the President and Chief Engineer where there and were very proud of their products.  I would be too!  I chatted for a bit with the President who told me that there aren't many reviews of these products around because some of them have not been certified by the FCC yet.  I told him I didn't care and if he wanted to ship me one to evaluate, I would be happy to write up a review :tongue:.  If I was in the market for a new amplifier, I would give these serious attention.

 

 

 

 

While talking to the President of Tokyo Hy-Power about his products, he said that the VHF amplifiers cut off power output pretty quickly outside the lower portion of the 2m band, but would work up to about 152Mhz or so fairly well.
