 In the CW mode about 600-650 out on 80-15

80-15 and about 900 on 10

Common problem due to the lack of a step-start, I don't know if they are
available or not,
I'm betting their not.

Any mod for the SB-220/221 should work, the HL is basically the

 I don't *think* the plate choke will allow it to
work on the WARC bands, but I'm not sure.
