I think someone claimed the 922 power supply won't handle 600-
800 watts dc power, while the cooling system is more than enough 
to cool the tubes while they are dissipating that power.

That isn't true. 

Remember I was discussing a dc condition, to "cook" the tubes 
with the anodes red to getter them. The supply will marginally 
handle that power, but the cooling system won't keep the base 
seals at safe temperatures.
