About Island Amplifier USA

ISLAND AMPLIFIER USA was founded by John Stanford, KF6I, in 2014. ISLAND AMPLIFIER USA offers 1) BEKO Elektronik Sales & Service for US, Canada and Central America, 2) RF-KIT Power Amplifier sales & service for US and Canada, 3) Professional HF amplifier repair service and 4) Restoration products to extend the life of legacy ALPHA ETO AMPLIFIERS (see SHOP menu).

In 2014, John was approached by Mac McCullough, W5MC, to develop a replacement HV diode assembly for his Alpha 77Sx amplifier. Mac had just upgraded his amplifier with a new transformer and capacitor and wanted to replace the high voltage rectifier board with a modern, up-to-date design. John and Mac collaborated on the development of this board, and the rest is history . . . fifty assemblies have been successfully integrated.

John began servicing HF linear amplifiers professionally in 2014. One need that immediately arose in the repair efforts was a replacement front panel for some of the Alpha series of amplifiers. A problem with the original paint used on many legacy Alpha amplifiers leaves the panel gooey, sticky and prone to scratches after a few years.

To solve this problem, John began manufacturing replacement front panels for the Alpha 374A, 76A and 78 amplifiers. In 2016, John added U-covers (aka wrappers) for the same amplifiers. In 2017, John added front, top and side panels for the Alpha 77Sx and 77Dx.
