[Amps] A word of Caution for my Ham Radio Brethren!

[Randall, Randy]

I looked at the pictures of the amp.  If it is unused, how did the screws on the right side get chewed up?  If it is unused, ‎why did the previous owner use magic marker to locate the input, output, ALC and relay jacks upside down?!  Lots of scratches for an unused unit too.  I wish I knew who this guy was by sight.  I would NEVER sell him anything @ a hamfest.  I am sure that he would frequent the Cincinnati and SE Indiana area hamfests since he is located in Georgetown KY.  Who is he?  Anyone got a picture?

Yeah, it might do 1200W out on a good day. That means Mart had the Variac on
full and 6V on the filaments.  That cabinet has a lot of scratches for a new
amp.

Ive done the phony bid on him a few times in the past when it was easy to
register throw away ID's. He gets very upset when that happens (-;
