[AMRadio] Amplifier to use with my DX-60

[kenw2dtc]

My main concern Don is that giving out a calculated carrier level for a set 
of tubes to a guy who does not have a scope and audio generator is not going 
to give the amateur band another clean signal.  As I mentioned in a previous 
email, I have been unable to obtain the efficiencies you mention and would 
like to hear from someone who can measure everything with test equipment and 
tell me about it.

Thanks,
Ken W2DTC
