I've heard good reports of the Harris RF110 which is a pair of 4CX1000As (I
think). The tubes are very under-rated and although the amp is rated at 1kW
out 2-30MHz I'm sure it could do more. It will, however, be limited by the
output transformer and the bandswitching which from what I've heard are not so
over-rated.
There was one for sale recently on one of the UK ham radio sites, though the
guy wanted about GBP2500 or something laughably optimistic and the amp had
home-brew power supplies and control box. Needless to say he couldn't sell it!
If you pick up one at a decent price then I'd say it could be a good piece of
kit assuming no-one's monkeyed with it. The manuals are all on the Boat Anchor
Manual Archive on the web

I am interested in possibly obtaining one of the Harris amps in the RF-10x
series. I have heard of people having great results with the RF-102A in
amateur service, at full amateur power, including coverage of 160M, but
don't know if anyone is marketing these as surplus, or... Nothing shows up
on E-bay.
Any leads welcome.
