heheheh I have one of those still in service on a repeater. Re-capped it a year ago and it still works fine. As I recall a shorted output simply folds back, like you say. I also have two Astrons here on the bench. One is a VS12, the other is a RS12. When the output is directly shorted with heavy wire they both simply fold back. Shorted them dozens of times; never a blown fuse. Laryn K8TVZ
