I have the older model (which I bought used last year).  It's a great little 
amp!  It WILL trip if SWR goes high, even for a very short time.  I noticed 
mine kept tripping and I couldn't figure out why until I realized it was every 
time I drove under an overpass on 40 or 75m.  The upper bands seem less prone 
the SWR spike around overpasses, but then again, I don't use the amp much on 
20m & up.
   
  In my case, the amp is right behind the passenger seat in my Ranger Extended 
cab, so I have no need for remoting.  The new style relay-type bandswitching is 
not required.

I would look here for eham reviews, I would say if you were going to buy a
used one get the serial number and look on the Ameritron site to see if it
needs the $60 remote module or the 160 remote module:)

Hi 



I am planning to purchase a Ameritron ALS-500M. Do anyone have any good or
bad tips about this amplifier?
