3 x 3cx800s will do a LOT of Pout.

Command's does near 6 Kw.


The 3CX800 has a pair of datasheets running around.  One shows Pout > 1200  
watts, another shows it at 750.

3 800s doing 4Kw is only 1300 watts a tube....  Easily accomplished, it's  
only 1.5 times Pdiss.


3 x 800s = 2400 watts of diss.  3 X 4-400s = 1200 watts of Pdiss.  I'm not  
a math major, but I fail to see how 1200 = 2400??????
