[Boatanchors] Galaxy V

That might be do-able. The max plate dissipation rating is 28W per tube. Keep a close ear & eye on the finals when testing it. Listen for the crinkly sound they make if overheating or any color on the plates. I imagine there's a LOT of better rigs for RTTY, ones that weren't pushing the finals so close to their limits.

Probably not very well. The finals aren't   intended for such continuous RF output. You'd have to reduce output a lot to   keep them from overheating.

I just got in a very clean Galaxy V. Well packed but   still, one of the
6HF5's broke. Does anyone have one for   sale?

Tnx,
