Good afternoon, Charlie.

Yeah, I saw that. Nice amp. Unfortunately way overkill for the FT-817,
and anyway I need something that can run from 13.8 volts.

A 25W to 50W amp is quite easy to build using the CCI Motorola designs. Then
you can taylor it to your needs- built in auto or manual tuner, QSK
switching etc.
