According to the manual:

o   Power: 2kw maximum
o   Frequency Range: 1.8 to 30mhz
o   Matching Range:  

    At least 10:1 VSWR, any phase angle, 1.8 to 30 mhz, 1300 ohms
    maximum parallel equivalent resistance at 1500 watts output
    (2 kv peak, >26:1 VSWR).

    5000 ohms maximum parallel equivalent resistance across
    balanced line at 1500 watts output (4 kv peak).

o  Maximum Full Power Longwire Length: 
   
   Single wire feed: 180/f (mhz) feet at 1500 watts output

These are direct quotes from the manual.

I've seen them selling used from $700 to $900.

73,
