I can figure it out and it does work very well I just thought it would be nice to find out if it was built from an old handbook article or if there were others out there running the same tube. See the attached pictures. The amp was built by a silent key KB0BY

I would think this should be easy to figure out if you have amplifier experience.

One box should be the power supply and the other the RF deck. The tube is a Pentode which means the drive levels will be real low. With some careful poking around you should be able to see what the power supply is capable of. Does the RF deck have multiple taps or is it a monoband amp?

Take and post pictures!  Send them to me and I'll post them on my website.

I picked up a homebrew 5cx1500 amp from a silent key but unfortunately there is no documentation I checked in a few handbooks I have for construction articles but no luck. Does anyone know where I could find articles on this amp? It is a well built 2 piece unit. Thanks.
