Hi Mike: Make sure that you throttle back the output on the FT-1000D to only
40/50 watts or the amp will trip out.

Subject: [Amps] Questions on Alpha 8410
Greetings Thermionic Sages,
I'm looking at an Alpha 8410 for a friend that is exhibiting what I
consider a weird problem.
This amp is 2 weeks old and worked fine until two days ago.
On SSB, legal limit out in a casual round table, after a little time
transmitting the amp faults and trips out.
It resets in about 4-5 seconds and then works for awhile before the same
thing happens.
The exciter is a FT-1000D. Does this amp need ALC?
Is there an accessible fault table or software application that read out
the faults and might give a clue?
Thanks in advance.
73 Mike K9MK/5
PS: On a side note, I know Alpha changed hands but are they still in
business?
