[Amps] 8877

[krishna kanakasapapathi]

Alpha 9500 ships with an import 3cx1500A7.
One needs to pay extra to have the Eimac instead of the import tube.

Now, are ebay medical pulls reliable for a spare 3CPX1500A7?
Any other non-ebay source, please drop me a note. I looked at mgs4u.com 
and they do not have any in stock.
