A 4cx35.000C in AB1 is what a wealthy Ham in Japan reportedly ran.  
(22kV anode -- 32A-pk cathode emission, breathed more air than 
Godzilla).  He reportedly said that the beast was not good for calling 
CQ because many people would come back to him that he could not hear.  
This problem is commonly called Nile crocodile syndrome.
