<Hi All,
<I am looking either for plans for an 80 meter mono-band amplifier optimized for the RTTY portion of the band or an actual amplifier itself. I want an all tube amplifier, including the power supply. I want no solid state components at all in this amp. I would like <it to be very "overbuilt" so that when I run it at 500 watts RF power, it is just idling. Of course, this is for RTTY, so it would be continuous duty at 500 Watts. I do not want to operate any higher than about 5oo watts.
<I would like full metering. It does not need to be rack mounted, but I do want a rugged chassis, and excessive ventilation to keep the tubes safe and so that those tubes last a long time. I do want it to be fully enclosed to keep four and two legged children safe <from the lethal voltages.

<Any ideas or locations for plans would be greatly appreciated.? 

<Thank you so much!
<73,

##  why mess  with tube rectifiers ??   That implies using a   full  wave  center tap config....  which is a dead loss  imo. 
Then  u would also require the mating fil xfmr for the tube rectifiers... which has the  B+  coming out of the  CT of the fil xfmr. 
Its  not  1956  anymore.   You cant  blow up   6A10  diodes, nor  10A10.... or  10A07s.
