not specific info, but a general idea Mike,
my clipperton-l would only put out 250 watts on 160...
I dumped it to a dummy load and discovered it would put out more higher in the
band, by locking the tx down on my 735 and spinning the tuning dial I
discovered
it like to tune at 2.0!!! and would even go higher!!
probably for mars freqs???
also, back when those and mine were designed, most activity was high in the
band
I believe...I was just getting my license but seem to remember large areas of
sharing with loran and 25 watt output limit.
I had to add a 200 pf 5kv doorknob cap in parallel with the bandswitched tune
caps for 160 to drop the tuning .... check your prints...
I'd also be interested in hearing from others about these amps on 160 and what
you did to make em happy....I'm just getting started.
