Over the years I've used many amps for HP R?TTY contesting and have
found only one auto tune amp that will do legal limit RTTY without
smoke:  An Alpha 9500.

I bought a pair of vintage 87A about 18 months ago (both with AlphaMax), and have done a fair amount of CW, SSB, and RTTY contesting with them. One has the extra fan, the other does not. I operate most contests SO2R. So far, I've seen no issues with either amp running at legal limit. During contests, I mostly run (call CQ) with a 2.5 sec listening interval.
