[AMPS] Dust off the Amp & 4-1000 & 3-1000 Tube sources?

[robert senesi]

Dusting off the old amp after 20 years of inactivity, I have a few 
questions regarding it:

A) Are there any special procedures I need to be aware of before running 
the tube and amp (grounded grid 4-1000 or 3-1000/ B&W 850A 
inductor/Jennings VacVariable Tune cap) other than normal operational 
procedures?
B) Are there any current sources for surplus/used/new-old-stock 4-1000's 
and 3-1000's?
C) Anyone know of a source for a 220V =>30A Variac??

Just went to a fairly large hamfest today (Gaithersburg, MD)and the 
selection of amplifier parts for sale is absolutely pathetic(nothing for 
sale). What is happening out there?

Any help would be much appreciated.


Thanks,


Bob K8NY
