Last week, I received several e-mails and telephone calls from a CBer
who was constructing a 3cx15,000A7 AB2 g-g amp. using a 3kV anode
supply.
He was having problems getting it to work properly, and he had some
questions, which I answered. In a few days, he got it to work. My
impression was that he was interested in the science behind getting it
to amplify linearly. Hopefully, he will someday get a license.
Reminds me of a fella I met in the Motor City a couple of years ago:

"Bluegill" from Chicago had a pair of 4CX20K's in the mobile.
CB'er or no CB'er it takes balls as well as brains to fire those up from
a 14v rail even with eight 350A Electrodyne alternators and stock in
Peter Dahl Inc.
My ham exam tutor and mentor G3AGP did not teach me that one in 76.
