That's probably why I couldn't find those links yesterday.

That does look interesting. I didn't see a link to download the owner's manual 
so I will be emailing them to see if one is available. Also, I didn't see any 
mention of duty cycle rating except it did say 1500 watts out and included FM 
in the list of modes. Being mostly a RTTY op, duty cycle is important.

I emailed them about the above. No owner's manual available yet. For
1500 watt carrier modes such as RTTY or FM, limit transmissions to 2.5
minutes. He did not specify how long the cool down time between
transmissions should be.

They seem to have focused their engineering on such features a touch
screen and other bells and whistles. I would have preferred they had
focused on the basics such as duty cycle, full power on all bands and
built in antenna tuner. To each his own.
