Here in this part of So. Cal you need stock in So Cal. Edison.
Hey Jaybird, could you afford to run this out there?

Hello MDW:

Yeah I am sure it would heat up a radio room on a cold night.

Man look at the price this old KW amp is going for, 3300 American
Dollars, TILT!

The amp shouldn't draw that much juice, since its only a stock ham band amp.

I worked on a amp that used two each 3CX300A7 Tubes, for Spectral
Analyst, a tool in mining. It drew an RF Arc, in a special chamber, and
the spectral light was looked and photographed by a optical analyzer,
that gave out the content for the material being tested. And it didn't
draw that much power, it didn't trip the 40 amp circuit bearkers that
supplied the 220 volts power to it. After the testing I plugged the
clothes dryer back in.

It just drew a lot of current when it was in transmit operation, but
that was just for a short while. So it didn't take a lot of juice for a
long period of time. But if it did that would be expenive. Kind of like
when the kid left his electric ceiling heater on for a few days.

Or the air compress runs open loon for a few days, because the air hose
leaks.

Edison isn't too bad. But they got upset when I disabled there power
lock out assembly, when they locked out my power, after I paid all the
Bills. I handed it back to them at there payment center.

We'll just cut you loose at the pole or transformer. Good thing you don't
live here. Not to mention the $200 per incident tamper fee.........

Not a problem, I paid all my bills so they didn't have a leg to stand
on. I and they knew it.

Yeah disconnecting my power at the pole would have done it. But they
would have had to "Hi Occo" it back the next day any way.

I had leg surgery back in the 80's. I went down to a welding supply shop
to buy a new set of bottles, torches, and regulators, at half price.
Hobbling around on Crutches.

I stooped off by the office at work to give them some papers. When I
hobbled back to the truck, they put on a metal restraining bar on my
front tire. Well with a new set of Cutting Torches, Bottles, and such, I
made quick work of their metal restraining bar. Leaving it there in a
pile of rubble, not in premium shape, I laughed all the way home.
Besides I was parked in a legal parking place.

Somethings ya wish ya had a picture of.

If my memory serves me correct the main amp section used a pair of
4-400A's in the final and a pair of 810's in the modulator section.
The pictures show that this was built like a battle ship. For high
level AM you needed about 20 watt carrier and 10 watts of audio. Dead
key about 750 watts plate modulated AM signal. At one time that deck
was as powerfull as some broadcast AM stations at night.

Definitely heavy with the steel desk attachment.
