abstract = {{The Advanced Photon Source (APS) particle accumulator ring (PAR) was designed to accumulate linac pulses into a single bunch using a fundamental radio frequency (rf) system, and longitudinally compress the beam using a harmonic rf system prior to injection into the booster. The APS Upgrade injectors will need to supply full-current bunch replacement with high single-bunch charge for swap-out injection in the new storage ring. Significant bunch lengthening is observed in the PAR at high charge, which negatively affects beam capture in the booster. Predictions showed that the bunch length could be compressed to better match the booster acceptance using a combination of higher beam energy and higher harmonic gap voltage. A new 10-kW harmonic rf solid-state amplifier (SSA) was installed in 2021 to raise the gap voltage and improve bunch compression. The SSA has been operating reliably. Initial results show that the charge-dependent bunch lengthening in PAR with higher gap voltage agrees qualitatively with predictions. A tool was written to automate bunch length data acquisition. Future plans to increase the beam energy, which makes the SSA more effective, will also be summarized.}},
