[AMRadio] RE: Yet another receiver update!

: Question:  Have you ever built a transmitter using 4-400's modulated with
: 810's or should I use 250TH tubes to modulate a pair of 4-400A's.  Thank
: you.

I've had a pair of 250TH's in the final of my homebrew rig, since I've had it.

I've modulated that thing with a pair of 811's, 810's, 4 810's in p-p parallel,
and 250TH's.  the next incarnation of "The Titanic" will be with a pair of
450TL's (if I can ever slow down at work, enough to get started on it!)

So far, the 250TH's have been superior, modulating a pair.  However,
do NOT discount a pair of 811's.  Those dudes put out more audio than
a pair of 810's did.  

Sometimes you just gotta forget what the Handbooks say, and go with 
what works.  

I switched from the 811's to the 810s, because the handbook said 810's
in class B, have like 700w output.  A far cry from the 811 classification,
but the kicker was, there was more audio out of a pair of 811's, hands
down.
