Exactly what I did. I obtained a 2 tube Alpha 76A, converted it to QSK and
3CX800A7's and installed an RFC-3 rf choke to allow WARC band coverage.
Since then a friend of mine passed away and I wound up with his Alpha 89.
The 76A is now my DXpedition amplifier and will be for sale after the Banaba
DXpedition.

Subject: [Amps] What Old Amp to Buy?
With Dayton 2 months away, I'm pondering whether to try to buy an
amplifier in the flea market, in order to add 160M QRO to my
repertoire. If you were looking, what would you be looking for? Don't
have bags of money, and am very happy with my SB-220, so maybe I should
leave well-enough alone?
What would you do?
