A possible source for high power tubes and cavities is the LPTV (Low Power  
Television) market. These folks  used tetrodes with plate dissipations in  the 
3-5 KW range (UHF examples are the Burle 9017 and Thompson/Thales  TH347), 
although, like the Big Boys, most have migrated to solid  state. 
 
There is a Yahoo group of these folks at 
_http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/cbaloop/_ (http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/cbaloop/) . 
 
In Europe, the EME boys snatched up virtually every TH347 and cavity when  
those stations went solid state.
