Hi Joe,
-
The rope holding the boat to the dock is the power
supply size. The Dentron Power transformer will
only do so much.

If someone produced a new PC board for it, a conversion to single
4CX400 would be interesting for the GLA-1000. The only real issue
would be getting the proper high voltage. The 4CX400 is easier to
cool than 2 x 4CX250 and should be able to provide 500 to 600 watts.

With a 4:1 (or 9:1) step up auto-transformer ("balun") and the
appropriate grid "swamping" resistor, a modified Dentron or similar
amplifier could provide 20 dB of gain for use with the Yaesu FT-817,
Elcraft or other QRP rig.
