[Amps] SB-220: 1,800 Watts Output

[Gudguyham at aol.com]

As I recall Henry Radio  rated one of their "pair of 3-500" amplifiers  at 
3000KW input, at 60% eff. (not unlikely) that would be 1800 watts PEP  
output.....NO?

Well, my SB-1000 with ONE 3-500z will produce 1100 watts output, if I  
forget to turn down 
the drive from my exciter.

The question is "for  how long will it do this?" My guess is "not too long!"
