IMHO a contester doesn't really need the instant on feature. I give more priority to lower drive power needed: exiter (mostly if a 100wout max one)will be better employed if less then its maximum pow

Good point. Other advantages are that the AL-1200 uses a parasite suppressor, the AL-1500 does not, plus the 3cx1200A7 does not use a gold plated grid, and the 8877 does -- i. e., it can suffer from

Usually contest start times are well known. If I'm operating a 48 hour contest, planning to turn the amp on 3 minutes ahead of 00:00 isn't that hard. For contesting, I think overhead capability is a

I remember us talking about the 3CX1200's in you store when they first hit the market. You thought at that time that the tube would be the 4-1000A of the 21st century. I think time has proven you ri

The one problem with the AL-1500 is the sensitivity of the 8877 to changes in the load. K8CC has written several times about problems with high grid current as the load changes with multiple antennas

The 8877 can not be faulted for failure in HF service due to gold-sputtering from the grid because that problem is the failure of the designer to take into account the 8877's extraordinary UHF gain.

Indeed, Mike. There are more tetrodes with handles in Hamdom's closets than in shacks. I know of one station who built a 13db "storage cabinet" in the shack for this purpose. Curiously, the storage c

Perhaps. But the SB-220/SB-221 is 175, with far less variability than the homebrew class. Bud, W2RU _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.

Searching simply for "Alpha" nets over 1,000 of them. The vast majority of the Alphas listed use either the 3XC400A7 or the 3CX800A7, with a smaller sampling of the 4CX800A and the 3CX1500A7. All ox
