Hi guys i,m new to the forums so here go,s. I,m looking for a good KL-203 i no it,s not the best but it,s all i need.Let me no if you have one. :sneaky:
 

Hello Biglou,
I happen to have a RM KL-300 with manual. I just bought back in december new. Only used twice on base. With one watt deadkey from radio. If interested let me know. 73,
 
CBKIDD1 thanks for the info,i think the 300 is more amp than i can use at this time.I live in a HOA park so i have to keep a LOW - PROFILE. I run a OPTIMA MK3 into a end-fed wire in a tree for a antenna.:cautious::(:confused:.

I would think about this one a little more. You could reduce the amps output by reducing the drive you give it, and as a bonus the amp will last longer and probably run cleaner.
 
I have had my rm 203 for 4-5 years now. I think it is a nice little cheap amp. I would do as suggested and buy a new one and save yourself the headache of buying somebody else's problem.

Not sure about what you can do about your antenna situation, but I live in a townhouse and I mounted a vertical dipole (two fiberglass antennas) on a painter's pole that I can raise to 12 '. With the 4' antennas that makes it about 16' to the tip.
I can talk locally on sideband to real base stations about 60 miles away to the west if me and about 35 miles elsewhere. When skip is decent I have made many dx contacts with my old Uniden Grant, the RM 203 and my crappy little antenna.
