ACOM 1400S: 1200 W solid-state HF and 6 m amplifier with a separate touch-screen Remote Control Unit R06.
Drive power: about 50 W for rated output (the usage text says less than 50 W, or up to about 50 W); RF gain 14 dB ±1 dB
IMD3: better than 31 dB below rated PEP; harmonics: -60 dB (HF) / -70 dB (50 MHz) or better
Input SWR below 1.2 (typically 1.1), 1.8-54 MHz; RF bypass SWR below 1.1
Output load SWR: up to 3 with proportional power reduction, up to 1.5 for full power
RCU R06: 179x118x86 mm, 730 g; amplifier-RCU cable 1.5 m
KEY-IN / KEY-OUT on phono (RCA) connectors
Mains consumption conflict: the current product-page specification table is used in the power field (up to 3100 VA at rated output at 200 VAC; up to 2000 VA at 600 W from 100/120 VAC). The April 2025 user manual specification table lists up to 2500 VA at rated output from 200/240 VAC and up to 1350 VA at 600 W from 100/120 VAC.
The April 2025 manual rates 1200 W at 200-264 VAC mains, with output reduced to about 600 W at 90-132 VAC (the product page says about 600 W below 200 VAC to keep mains current under 10 A).
Coverage notes: 60 m 5.020-5.455 MHz, 6 m 50-54 MHz; check regional band plans
Operating temperature: -10 to +40 °C; up to 3050 m without output reduction
