<And also 2 holer AL-1500's which was as simple as using the AL-82 tube
<chassis and a filament transformer. W8JI pioneered that swap for his own use.
<Never had a report of any failures.

## Very slick ! Is the oem PI net retained ? The resulting plate load Z with
a pair of 8877s would only be one half of a single tube. The 2 holer would require
double the tune and load C..and one half the UH on each band.
## Was an out board B+ supply used ?
