No, but a popular mobile amp that ran 600 watts were selling for
considerably less. I used a Henry 2K-2 for years until it good too damned
heavy for this old man to horse around! I now have an Ameritron AL-811H
Much lighter and 500 watts is very adequate. Will run more, but why do it
as the 811A's I have will last a long time at 500 watts CW.
Solid state would be nice....BUT. Hard to by on a retirement fixed income.

Sandy, did you ever take a look at what a kilowatt amp cost in 1955? It
would be more than than $3,000 when $3,000 was a year's pay for most.
