[Central-Electronics] re CE 200V re Alpha ad in latest QST

[George Maier]

I'm with Jon on this one....IMHO the 75A-4 was the styling model for the
100V & 200V, and certainly compliments them nicely. Not quite as esoteric as
your set up Pete, but pretty doggone good.

The 600L is a nice touch, but it doesn't make such a big in power, and you
have to keep a very careful eye on the drive level from the 100V/ 200V. It's
a lot easier with a vintage GG amp of some type that can take the full
output of one of these exciters ---- except for the no-tune part.  

Oh; credit where credit is due; at least the Alpha folks acknowledged our
beloved CE gear. 

73 all, George - W1LSB

The first 100V  I ever saw back in '62 or '63 was paired with an  
HQ-170.   Not everyone had 75A-4's to go with their CE equipment as I  
do now.

I liked the ad but I'd still rather pair with a 600L even though  
that's less power.
