One thing to consider is that most solid state amps have very sensitive
VSWR protection circuits and will not produce the full output unless
there is no reflected power power. I have found it necessary to ad an
LDG AT-1000 Pro Auto Tuner so I do not have to keep resetting the VSWR
overload circuit. In short Solid State Amps are very convenient and
with switching supplies are relatively small. However none I have used
so far will do their rated power under normal circumstances.

Considering a Solid State Amp.
I'd like to get some Consparion Information to see if it would make a
Difference in performance.
Any information would be Greatly Appreciated!
Thanks for your Help!
