Guess this isn't really on the exact subject but a thought just crossed
my mind. The 10,000 amp on ebay is listed at $9500 and the phone number
is shown in the description. With a price that high, maybe he doesn't
really want to sell it on ebay because of applied charges on a
successful sale. Wouldn't the auction savings be substantially lower on
an unsuccessful auction? That would be cheap advertising to a large
audience. No one would think of doing that ... would they?  Ebay
couldn't / wouldn't band one for that. Larry N5BIP

In a telephone conversation with a multi-multi contest station  
owner-operator in Colorado - whom I knew ran several 2500W amplifiers,  
he kvetched at length about contest stations that used "illegal 10kW  
amplifiers".  The laugher is that the advantage of a 10kW amplifier  
over a legal amplifier is only 8db - hardly noticeable with QSB.
