I'll be the first to admit I'm not perfect, but I've built several QRO amps
( 3cx3000a7, 3cpx5000a7, 4 X 4-400, 3cx1200a7, etc... ) . If I had waited
to become perfect and precise before homebrewing these amps, they would have
never been built. Just because I put a comma in the 3cx15,000B7 doesn't mean
I have no understanding of high voltage. Oh, buy the way, 14 mhz is 20 mtrs,
or at least 99.99.99% of the hams I've ever communicated with knew exactly
what I was talking about in reference. ( this is my one and only message
concerning this subject! )

Putting it very simplistically, if someone hasn't the wits to find their way
round such issues, they shouldn't be messing with things so dangerous. If
you
want academic precision in all things, this is not the place to be.
