abstract = {{At the Electron Stretcher Facility ELSA in Bonn the first acceleration stage consists of a 3 GHz traveling wave linear accelerator. It was powered by a 25 MW pulsed high power klystron amplifier, which had been in use for the last thirty years. After a major failure and due to the lack of spare part availability the RF station was rebuilt. In addition to a new klystron including its high voltage tank, the new setup also consists of major upgrades of the infrastructure, the pulse forming network and the safety interlocks to satisfy the contemporary requirements. A new monitoring system consisting of multi-channel sampling ADCs allows for automatic pulse-by-pulse analysis of the klystron parameters and simultaneous evaluation of RF performance and stability. In this contribution we will present the new RF station setup, which has successfully been operating since the beginning of 2021 as well as the new monitoring capabilities.}},
