[Premium-Rx] Premium-Rx?

I am using a Collins HF8014 and HF8023 with my WJ8718 rx. 
Realistically, its a hard way to go as the HF80 stuff is difficult to
come by in any condition...

A thought would be one of the Harris exciters with the RF-110A 1KW (at
least) amp.  These seem more common, and the older Harris exciters for
this setup usually arent that expensive(RF-131-122).  The newer exciter,
The RF-1310 is a lot more expensive.

Toronto Surplus ( www.torontosurplus.com) has pictures of the stuff. 
Prices vary from reasonable to kind of high.  Watch ebay for the amp and
exciter as I recall seeing several there.

Either way, the Collins or Harris would be "premium-tx".
