[Boatanchors] RE: Here is where all the 211's are going

[Revcom]

But how do you get 200% duty cycle?  Hummm.

Same guys that pay $1600 for a shielded IEC power cable, or $45/foot
for 10AWG speaker wire.  They are out there.

Maybe my tube type Allen organ amp is worth something it is a "boat anchor"
for sure, make nice AM modulator I guess.
