[Amps] Even more power solid-state amp's

[Gudguyham@aol.com]

In regard to solid state amps.........My cousin who was the engineer in  
charge of the transmitter for WABC (sk in the 911 tower incident) said to me  that 
all the power running on the transmitter for WABC TV was cascaded solid  
state amps.  They are no longer using tubes.  I was looking for some  "pulled" 
tetrodes with handles....too late now...I wonder if I will live long  enough to 
see "tube type" amps fall by the wayside?  I am 53.  73  Louie
