Oh, geesh...that piece of junk still around? It's "all solid state," alright. It's a toroid and a dummy load built into a metal case, as the ARRL determined when they X-Rayed it. Cost to build: Proba

You guys are so negative! The Maxx-Com requires no power because it's powered by RF, which is dissipated internally creating thermal rise; that thermal rise is used to spin fan blades which drive a r
