Why would you get a surge ? Every thing has been "on", the caps are charged most of the way, you are just going up a couple hundred volts.

The amp groans quite a bit when first powered on of course. I never noticed any surge in the sense of "groaning" or lights dimming when going from CW to SSB. That doesn't mean it's not there just something I never noticed and certainly not as obvious as a power on.

That's a terrible design.

is non-functional..and u get one helluva surge.
