I have used the A320. It is a neat little amp. Runs very hot. One of the things I thought was frustrating is the LOS antenna is that comes with it is junk. The amp only has one output port. Not too many antennas that connect with a TNC connector will take 20 watts and not burn.

I have played around with the MB50 amp and that thing is money. Not as small as the A320 but it has two RF output ports, one for SATCOM and another for LOS. Plus the LOS port uses the same connector as the PSC-5 and 117F, so any antenna that works with the big radios will attach directly to the MB50.

The MB50 puts out between 20 to 50 watts. Much better amp than the little A320.
