Could be. Just as info the amp I´ve got with
a R-175 in it is a 3 x 4-400A unit and it runs
excelent 160-10 meter (NOT 12-17-30 meters),
did once try to tune it on 17m but with a big
bang as result and one wire got ripped off at
the R-175 so at least I know it will resonate
on 18 MHz, never tried 12 or 30m and been to
lazy do dip it (hi).
