Hello Dr Death:
Oh yeah I am sure. It boggles the mind that someone would buy something like this, way back when. One of the engineers from General Radiotelephone (Single Sideband Sam) had a very large Tube amp in the back seat of his 1964 Covair with a Johnson 350, a 2 channel SSB Radio, and a 102 inch whip antenna in the center of the cars roof. He got out really well. He was on channel 16 and 4 LSB. I use to monitor channel 15 in the San Fernando Valley in So Cal, use to hear a lot of Truckers roll by, and there where a few memorable ones with really loud strong stations in their trucks. Some really impressive. Was able to talk to a few of the truckers all the way down into Long Beach at the harbor. So they really had a significant station. Jay in the Mojave Kreedentials:...

Owner 1966 Ford F250 4x4 Truck, Hi Po 460, twice exhaust, no smog stuff, had worlds loudest PA System, great for oldie but goodie night at local drive in restraunt.

Still studying morse code (beeps and dots)for ham radio lic. 5 Kollage credits, 3 for passing, and 2 for leaving early. DrDeath wrote: "Jay in the Mojave" wrote in message ... Hello All This caught my eye. I didn't know they made this type of amps in a mobile verison! Looking at the 12 switching transistors on the back of the amp, leaves one in awe! That had to draw more current than Bolder Dam. http://cgi.ebay.com/VARMINT-XL-1000-...QQcmdZViewItem Jay in the Mojave That box needs its own seat in the car. |
