Hi All,
I have a Dentron MLA-2500 that was very nicely converted to a single
3cx800a7. I purchased this to use as a backup amp with my 706 Icom and
didnt realize when I bought it the amp didnt have a tuned input. I posted a
question about it a while back and it is kind of a pain to use with another
tuner in between. The dentron looks good, the meter covers have little
holes melted through them from the heat of the bulbs - so there is now an
extra set of 4 green power indicator lamps across the front (my wife thinks
it looks cool anyhow). I get around 15-1600 out on 220vac depending on the
band and have used it on the air with good reports. It uses a pretty large
external blower and the conversion is top notch. The HV relay has been
changed to a jennings vacuum raly also.
I thought I would post it here before I put it on the general market. I am
looking for a newer model 'instant on' ~1KW amp, 4x811, 2x572, single 3-500z
to trade plus or minus cash depending on what it is. I want to move this
thing so dont be afraid to make an offer. I have some detailed pics that
may be worth a look even if you just want to see the conversion, e-mail me
direct and I'll send them along.
Thanks and 73,
Kevin
