>> Hi Folks!
>>
>>
>>
>> Just an update on the amplifier based on suggestions made by several
>> owners and admirers of this amplifier:
>>
>>
>>
>> It only takes a few watts (5-7W) of drive to get the full 1200W output
>> on
>> either Six Meters or Two Meters.
>>
>>
>>
>> If drive it with less, it will put out less, but for a longer, more
>> reliable
>> time.
>>
>>
>>
>> There were only about 250 units produced by the factory, so it is a
>> bit of a
>> collector's item for those who cherish tube amplifiers.
>>
>>
>>
>> Finally, while this is a dual band amplifier for 50 & 144 MHz that
>> puts out
>> about 1200W,
>>
>> I am not greedy and the "buck a watt" rule of thumb will not be in
>> effect
>> here but a respectable offer will be accepted, if offered.
