The RM Italy BLA703 is a high-performance, 500W AC-powered base station linear amplifier for the 25–30 MHz frequency range — covering the CB 27 MHz and 10-metre amateur radio bands. Driven by as little as 1W and up to 35W input, it delivers a maximum output of 500W, making it compatible with virtually any CB or 10m transceiver. The switch-mode power supply (SMPS) accepts 100–240V AC worldwide, is both lightweight and highly efficient, and eliminates the need for a separate heavy linear PSU. A large heatsink with two cooling fans ensures quiet, reliable thermal management during extended operation. Harmonic output is greater than −50 dBc — no additional filtering required for FCC compliance. Comprehensive protection circuits guard against excessive input drive, high antenna VSWR, over-temperature, and out-of-band transmissions. Supports both VOX (with SSB delay) and PTT switching modes.
