- I recently acquired a nice L4b amplifier. It has no tubes or supply. It is in very nice condition. If you were to build the "ultimate" supply for this what would you use for a transformer. I would th

- Use a transformer from an Ameritron AL-572, it will give you very close to the original and not mess up the tubes load impedance. It is in the MFJ catalog and reasonably priced compared the new alter

- I run my L4-B at 800V (no load) above the original design. 3100V key down at .7A.1600W PEP out. It's been handling it fine for about 6 months now. I think the cooling is probably inadequate but I lik

- You might run into plate choke heating if resonances atre close as well as switch arcing which seems to be common with that amp. I thru the calculator away several times and installed a LK-500 thru 8

- I replaced the original with the Ameritron one. It's a little tall so I added an insulator at the top otherwise a little pressure on the case would short it out. No arcs or sparks on any band includi
