FS Beautiful Alpha 78 amplifier: This Alpha 78 has been updated by R.L. Howard, Howard Radio, Abilene Texas. He modified it for use with a pair of 3CPX800A7 tubes and did the WARC and 10 meter band additions (except for 12 meters).He also installed a BNC input connector in place of the RCA Phono jack, plus other mods. A new pair of EIMAC 3CPX800A7 pulse rated tubes( brand new, not pulls) were installed. This amp has the Hypersil transformer which will be shipped separately. A new black panel with the 17 and 10 meter positions indicated on the Band Switch was installed. The case is newly painted black. Nice job. Pictures available. Price is $1025 plus shipping. That is considerable below the going price for an Alpha 78 with the 3CPX800A7 tube modification. The reason for the lower price is when I apply drive, nothing happens. I get HV and some grid current when I key the amp, but nothing else. If you are interested in this 78 please e-mail me for additional questions. This is one beautiful amplifier. Thanks, Charlie Hugg, K5MBX.
