[WSWSS] 300w 1296 cavity

[Jim Klitzing]

Ralph (K6TSK) suggested this posting, so here goes:

For anyone out there with interest in 1296 QRO, the KD5FZX cavity is a
good way to go. I've had one in service here since May, works flawlessly.
Mats (KD5FZX) is building another run of 50, and as of this post, 3 are
still available. He charges $400 for an operational and fully tested
cavity, complete with a spare tube. If you want additional tubes, they are
plentiful.

You'll have to wrap your own TR switch and power supply around the cavity,
so it's not for the inexperienced or the not-so-serious operator. A
construction article for a complete amp can be seen here:

You can contact Mats here if you decide to take the plunge:

If the construction article isn't enough to help you get through the
project, I'm willing to assist via email.
