Hi
The radio runs three 6146's in the output section if I remember right
(possibly two ..). That gets it a whopping 100 watts output into 50
ohms on SSB or CW. The antenna tuner that sits next to the radio lets
you tune most reasonable antennas. I suspect it is good to about a 4:1
SWR.
They were nice radios in their day. The main knock on them was that the
comb generator synthesizer generated more spurs than you might expect
in a military radio. They met all the applicable specifications, but a
modern rice box probably is better on spurs than a 301.
Enjoy!
