Glenn,
All of the tuned input components including the pc board can be purchased
directly from Ameritron. They have a standard policy of offering virtually
every part they use in their amps for sale to the public. While some parts
are marginal like their bandswitches others are nicely done such as their
tuned input networks.
They have a web site but I do not know it. Go to www.hamradio.com and click
to dealer links and get in that way. I, like Rich, wonder why they have not
converted over to the Z7. If the tubes were not so expensive that would be
the only tube of choice. But, since used, good pull Eimac 3-500Zs are
available for $75 they ramain my core tube.
