Easy when done correctly, & NOT by using a SO239 socket on the output!

That thing should have a 7-16 connector at least on the output.

I don't see any mention of any automatic protection against high VSWR or
other woes that'd damage the tube and/or tuning networks.

PS:  that power level is very do-able all solid state these days, and
with very much higher power's too!   But...  You'd need an equally
expensive harmonic filter bank, to keep it clean "on air".
