But if you have the $$$ to run 15KW  ( think total system QRO++  
costs... coax and antennas , change over relays, ect ) ...  then the  
costs of occasionally replacing tubes with handles is all part of the  
yearly expenses.

)n the other hand, in commercial broadcast  I've been running a  
4CX20,000 @ 11KV @ 3.5A for over three years now... 28KW FM output and  
24/7  at the end of a "really nasty" utility feed, and like the  
Energizer Bunny, it just keeps on running and running with 1960's (  
really slow ) relay overload logic on the screen and cathode.
