[Central-Electronics] [Bulk] Re: Amplifier for CE-20

[Fern]

Let's be realistic Todd as there's nothing wrong with a price of $750 for a 
decent looking 200V nor is $1200 out of line for a decent 600L amplifier as 
these amps are very very scarce. I have never seen the 600L amp for sale on 
either epay or anywhere else for that matter except for the one that I 
acquired years ago on a trade for a collins 30S1 amp.  Now if one want to 
use either a 100V or 200V with the 600L amp, the output power is fully 
adjustable to below 5 watts output on either of those exciter but an 
attenuator would provide better isolation and a safety factor.
