Pete,
Dentron is a nice choice. Others would be Ameritron AL-82, Kenwood TL-922, and
Drake L-7. I am currently running a Kenwood TL-922, Alpha 91B, and an Ameritron
ALS-600. I am trading the Ameritron for a Drake L-4B as soon as the guy gets
here.
Good luck in your quest.
I agree with the Cliperton L choice. Simple, works well, and relatively
inexpensive. You might want to add a tuned input if it doesn't have one.
Only problem I saw was on some models the coax from the tank circuit to
the relay had a solid dielectric and would sometimes melt and short out
where it went under a bulkhead

Subject: [Amps] What Old Amp to Buy?
With Dayton 2 months away, I'm pondering whether to try to buy an
amplifier in the flea market, in order to add 160M QRO to my
repertoire. If you were looking, what would you be looking for? Don't
have bags of money, and am very happy with my SB-220, so maybe I should
leave well-enough alone?
What would you do?
