[RTTY] RTTY Capable Amp

[Scott Nichols <snichols@mvosprey.com>]

What are all you guys using for RTTY contesting amps ? Santa is going to 
bring VE1OP a late xmas present...

I have an AL811 with 4 x 811A tubes, but keep blowing tubes, resistors 
and capacitors..I suspect this amp is not sturdy enough for the rigours 
of a full weekend of RTTY ?? Or the tubes aren't tough enough ? I try to 
keep it within spec, especially on RTTY...

Are there other amps/tubes that better fit RTTY contesting ? I don't 
need a kilowatt, just 500-800 watts is plenty...

And yes, I know a 87A would do the trick, but I'd like to be able to 
afford to eat after I buy a new amp...

Any suggestions ?

Thanks, GL in RU and Happy New Year to all...

Scott VE1OP
