Default Old Xmtrs, "Ancient Modulation" and Modern Amps (Only in America)

If I were you, I'd look for any of the "2KW PEP" linears that come up on
Ebay or at hamfests, such as an L-4B: any linear rated for 1KW key-down
continuous input will work fine.

If you are using coax, don't forget to check it for breakdown voltage
before loading up: AM peaks will put a lot of strain on older cable.
Don't ask me how I know ;-).

HTH.

Thanx for the info. It seems like most hams I work on AM that use amps
are using linear amps, but much to my surprise there are many here in
this group that are against using linears.
