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. Dave G0WBX. 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". ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
