  The superconducting CW- LINAC (1.3 GHz) of the radiation source ELBE is in permanent operation since May 2001/1/. During the winter shut-down 2011 - 1212 an upgrade program of ELBE was realized. One part of the program was to double the RF-power per cavity using two 10 kW Solid State Amplifiers in parallel per cavity. The poster gives an overview on the new RF-system and the experience gained within the first three months of operation.
