[Amps] Alpha vs Henry

[Dave Hachadorian]

I run the AL-1500 blower at max speed.  No problems after many 
years of RTTY contests.  I run 750 ma plate current on RTTY.

Can anyone tell me how much power an AL-1500 is rated to produce 
at a 100% duty cycle?

During RTTY contests and outputting about 1000 watts, the tube 
side of the cabinet gets mighty warm.  The power supply side 
seems cool - but then, that's with the cover on.  I don't know 
how hot is too hot and it would be useful to know at least how 
much continuous power the supply is rated for.

Tube cooling is probably another issue...
