[Amps] Gonset Amplifier

[COLIN LAMB]

The Gonset 500-W was made in 1954 and covered 10 - 80 meters with provision
for 160.  SSB output is 250 watts PEP.  Am output is 90 Watts.  CW output
is 220 watts.  Uses 4 x 807 tubes in parallel with 4 866 Jr. in a bridge
circuit.  New cost $339.50.  

It has a tuned input for use with the Central Electronics 10A exciter.

Perfect for driving with the newer 200 watt transceivers if you want a
power reducer.
