The "50uH" HV-RFC has only 29uH.  


>How about 160 meters - the RF deck looks pretty spacious, has

Yes.  If the amp has an 80m position and a 75m position, the 160 
conversion is easier.  

>How about WARC band

12m works on the 10m position.  17m works on the 15m position.  A tuner 
on the radio helps.
