Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
A few more things to remember: the steady state rating of a circuit breaker or nominal load is 80% (16A for a 20A circuit, the ICAS rating for the la1k is about 1kw output, the CCS rating is about

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
The concern is with the current draw, as Jerry Webb clearly and accurately posted. According to the manual, at 120 VAC the maximum current draw for the LA-1K is 33 amps. It is false security to

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Hey Fritz,first off Happy Thanksgiving from Canada! Second, those output numbers look pretty good to me, Honestly I never ran more than 700 or 800 with my old AL-80A so I doubt I would drive the amp

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
I have a 20A ~120V circuit with a single outlet for my LA-1K. These are the amp's drive and output numbers into a dummy load. 5 in => ~150 out 10 in => ~270 out 15 in => ~400 out 20 in => ~500

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Hi Jerry Well to be honest I do not plan on running the amp at 1000 PEP. 600-700 is more than enough for my use. My old AL-80A ran just fine on the dedicated 120 V circuit, but at full output it

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Hi Rick: My LA-1K has the Auto-Sensing power supply and does NOT have the 120/240VAC switch to select.? The label on my LA-1K rear panel (below the AC input receptacle) states "20AMPS at 120VAC.

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Thanks Bob that is good to know. And yes I will check that switch! I will likely get a 220 run into the shack after I get the amp. Just need to pick up the 10/2 wire and outlet receptacle. To those

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Hi Rick, I have that exact setup in my shack. But remember to slide the switch located on the SIDE of the LA1K to 110. Usually when delivered, the switch is indicating 220, so it's

Re: DRIVE POWER REQUIRED
Hi Rick My LA-1K is powered by 120V. I use the Icom IC-7300 with about 25 to 30 Watts output for SSB and get around 400 to 500 Watts out. 73, Claus (AE0S)

Re: DRIVE POWER REQUIRED
Rick, I drive my LA-1K from the Icom 7610 with no more than 45 watts or less (depending on the band) and output is approximately 1000 watts.? The LA-1K is a fantastic solid state amp.? Enjoy!

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
There is no issue running the LA-1K with 120v.? I ran my amp on 120v for the first week until I was able to run a dedicated 240v line to my amp.? It works well on 120v but really performs on 240v.?

Re: Morgan systems M303 coaxial surge suppressors used with the LA1k amp
The amp works without issue, really like having a 1Kw radio on hand plus instant band changing with a cat cable. Nice that 40 watts drives it to a kilowatt.
