Well, If I were getting "some other box", high on my list would be the Emtron DX-2SP with the FU728F tube supplied and the option of being able to plug and play a 4CX1500B into in lieu of it, if desi

But who is going to get it "for you"? I contacted them and they refused to even send information as to quote them" our amps are not FCC approved" so we can't sell in the US. So I would assume they ar

You're obviously not worried about obsolete tubes then? I have a Emtron DX-2 which runs the Svetlana 4CX1600B (GU91B). It is unobtainium. The GU78 and GU84B have all but gone the same way. I would st

Nope, The DX-2sp uses the Chinese FU728F or with the change of a filament voltage tap a 4CX1500B. The DX-3sp has the same option. But Emtron will change it to use the new tubes. How much they charge

Id stick with an AL-1200 using the new 3CX1200Z7 for now or the AL-1500 where 8877 pulls are available for $300 and the new production Chinese versions are excellent. Let the big guys fight it out wi

Specufic to the Alpha products, in the serious 1500 w capability class, the Alpha 8410 (dual hole) amp is a good choice in the manual-tune category. This is off their "commercial" line variation wher

It's a discredit to the narrow focus of this list that no one has asked you how you want to use this amp, what else is in your station, what sort of operating you do, and so on. What bands? CW? SSB?
