ICOM PW-1 HF / 6m 1kW Linear Amplifier

back in stock 

ICOM PW-1 HF / 6m 1kW Linear Amplifier
Wide frequency coverage with 1 KW output.
All HF bands plus 50 MHz are covered. The IC-PW1 provides a stable, clean and low distortion 1 kW from 1.8 MHz to 50 MHz. In addition, full duty cycle (even during more demanding RTTY or SSTV operation) and full break -in operation are possible. Great for DX'Peditions or contest operation.
Wide ALC adjustable range
Internal circuitry allows the ALC to be adjusted over a wide range. This means that the IC-PW1 can be used with almost any HF, 6 m or HF/6 m rigs - not only Icom rigs! (Ask your dealer about usable exciters.)
Compact body
Dimensions, including amplifier, power supply, tuner and controller, are only 350 (W), 269(H), 1378 (D) mm. (approx.) And, because the controller is detachable, the IC-PW1 can be installed almost anywhere in your shack.
IC-PW1 specifications:
Dimensions: 350 (W),269 (H), 378 (D)mm
Weight: 35kg (approx.)
Auto band changing
Four antenna connectors
Built in auto antenna tuner
Capable of matching 3:1 SWR on HF, and 2.5:1 SWR on 6 meters
Matches a wide array of antennas
4 cooling fans
100% duty cycle (even during RTTY or SSTV)
Full break-in operation
Automatic AC input voltage selector
Dual CPUs for system operation, monitoring and control
CPU memories for automatic antenna selection and switching for fast band/antenna changes. Works with almost any make of HF, 6 Meter, or HF / 6M transceiver... not just Icom rigs. Check with your dealer.
