I may be getting a L-4B and have already started thinking about how to 
get more power out of it. I operate only CW which is a lower duty cycle 
than RTTY and higher than SSB. Before I do any further day dreaming 
about modifications the the L-4 PS supply, I need to know the the KVA 
rating for it's power transformer? There is no point in bumping up the 
plate voltage if the transformer is going to sag and overheat under the 
increased load.
