[Amps] AL-1500 pi-network capabilities

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

Yes several 922s are for sale on ebay and qth.com.   I read your interesting 
and entertaining comments on your website re the 922.  there is useful 
information there not only for 922 owners but any 3-500 amp owner.

73,

Rob -- If it were updated and some circuit improvements made, the TL-922 
would be a winner.  Fortunately, used 922s become available from time to 
time.  For someone who knows how to solder, a 922 is an excellent 
opportunity to advance above the rank of appliance operator.
-- However the basic problem in Japanese companies is 'ringesho' - a 
Japanese term meaning that only ideas for improvement that come from the CEO 
himself can be used.  Thus, in the beginning, if the CEO of Trio-Kenwood had 
used a spectrum analyzer to discover that the 922 has an intermittent osc. 
problem at 110 - 120 MHz, and he set about making the amplifier more stable, 
the 922 would probably still be produced
