Our Founder Wanted To Create The … Widest Bandwidth Amplifiers In The Industry
Introducing the AR “U” (Universal) Series Amplifiers
10 kHz-1000 MHz
“Wouldn’t it be great if a single 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50- or 100* watt RF amplifier could span the entire frequency
range of 10 kHz – 1000 MHz?” That’s what our founder, Don “Shep” Shepherd said. We agreed it would be
great, but we knew there was a reason no one had done it.

So we put our engineers to work figuring out ways to expand the frequency range while keeping the cost low
and the performance and quality high. It wasn’t easy, but we designed a series of amplifiers with the widest
bandwidth in the industry. They’re compact, affordable, high performance, and very
reliable. These new “U” Series amplifiers can serve unlimited applications
across multiple industries. These new amps also prove something
Shep has always said: “Nothing is impossible when you’re really
committed to achieving a goal!”
* The new 100U1000 covers the 100 kHz - 1000 MHz frequency range.
