The Acom 1010 - 160-10m linear amplifier offers easy operation with its innovative True Resistance Indicator (TRI) for quick and precise tuning. Its auto-operate function saves time by automatically returning the amplifier to the OPERATE mode after each protection trip. With a VSWR of 3:1 or lower, no external antenna tuner is needed, making it convenient to change antennas and use them over wide frequency ranges.

This durable amplifier is designed to withstand up to 240 W of reflected power, drive spikes, and even tuning errors. It can operate at over half its designed output power at only 75% of nominal line voltage, making it suitable for portable environments. The LED bar-graph display provides precise readings for forward and reflected power, with warning indicators for abnormal conditions.

The Acom 1010 offers efficient tuning, achieving antenna matching in less than 10 seconds and at a quarter of nominal output power. It operates independently of the transceiver, requiring only "ground on TX" and 60 W RF drive power. The broadband input matching circuitry ensures excellent loading characteristics for the driving transceiver.

Using a single Svetlana 4CX800A (GU74B) high-performance ceramic-metal tetrode, the amplifier maximizes efficiency with its 800W plate dissipation. It features permanent monitoring and protection of the plate and grid currents, as well as high-voltage protection to eliminate turn-on transients. The amplifier can be configured for different line voltages and shipped with specific bands disabled.

With its comprehensive specifications, including frequency coverage, power output, distortion levels, and input/output impedances, the Acom 1010 offers reliable performance. It complies with safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements and is suitable for various operating environments.
