I've used commercial wideband high-power VHF amplifiers for testing in professional work. Smaller than shown in the photo. What does it matter what you've used professionally that you didn't build, Len? But the 3cx10,000a7? Hardly amateurish. Probably more in the domain of professionals. Sounds rather ILLEGAL to me if "used on 80m" as claimed by the seller. What would be illegal about using such an amp on 80m? Not something that HRO or even Henry Radio would feature in catalogs ("call or write for details and prices"). Pro stuff, probably intended for something rather different than pure communications. From the looks of the exhaust vent in the E-bay photo, I'd say that it should be about a 10-gallon RF output thing, quite out of the amateur legal limits. That doesn't mean that it is run above the legal amateur power limits. It only means that it could be. Besides, it doesn't have enough knobbies on it to "qualify" for an amateur radio transmitter on "the bands" (HF). A linear amplifier isn't a transmitter, Len. It amplifies the output of a tranmitter or tranceiver. :-) :-) Dave K8MN |

Sweetums you clueless old fart, check out the ACOM 2000A "amateur" HF 2kW+ amp, not a "knobbie" in sight. Get a life. |

wrote Sounds rather ILLEGAL to me if "used on 80m" as claimed by the seller. Nothing illegal, so long as it's used within the rules. I have a couple of different amplifiers which could easily be driven beyond 1500W out, but are perfectly legal so long as the power output rule is observed. 73, de Hans, K0HB |
