//   The 3CX1200A7 has been obsoleted by the 3CX1200Z7.  The ...A7 has 
much feedback C.  Thus, it can become a VHF oscillator.  The Z7 has about 
one-tenth as much feedback C, so it tends to be more stable.  The 
3CX1500A7/8877 also has little feedback C, however, one should probably 
use a low VHF-Q/VHF-Rp suppressor to minimize intermittent parasites.
