ALS-600 SPECIFICATIONS
Output Power: 600 Watts PEP SSB, 500 Watts CW typical
Frequency Coverage: 1.5 to 22 MHz (10/12 Meters with MOD-10MB)
Driving Power Required: 100 watts maximum
Input SWR: 1.5:1 maximum
Spurious Outputs: Greater than 45 dB down
Intermodulation Distortion: Greater than 25 dB down
SWR Protection: Amplifier is bypassed if reflected power exceeds 75
watts. Prevents amplifier damage if you select the
wrong band or wrong antenna, or have high SWR
Over Power Protection: If output forward power or reflected power exceeds
safe level, output power is automatically reduced by
controlling the exciter ALC.

read SWR, and forward and reflected peak power
simultaneously
Metering (Power Supply): Illuminated Cross-Needle Meter monitors voltage and
current of 50 VDC line.
Operate/Standby Switch: Lets you run "barefoot", or instantly switch to full
power.
ALC Controls: Front Panel - exclusive Ameritron feature -- lets you
adjust your amplifier output power.
Rear Panel – sets ALC range to match your
transceiver.
