[Fourlanders] 6 Meter KW

[Gordon Macie]

I have been looking for weeks on qth.com and ebay for a 6 meter amplifier. They are very hard to find. There was a Henry 2006a that sold on ebay yesterday but I had 2 issues with it and I decided to not bid. Primarily it was from an estate and the seller hadn't even powered it up.

Someone today listed a Henry 6n2 on qth. I googled this amp and it apparently was discontinued because it didn't meet fcc emission standards.
It would be nice to have the kw on 2 also but several links on google mention this amps unstability.

There is a Dentron DTR2000 (8877) available locally at a reasonable price. Tim, KY5R in Alabama runs one of these on 6. So I know it can be converted to 6. I don't have the technical skills to modify this on my own. Does anyone know of someone locally I could pay to modify this for 6 ??.. I have a vacuum cap that was intended for this purpose on a heath amp. Wouldn't need the other bands so it could be stripped.

Looking for advice / help ??

Desperately seeking kw on 6 before next years season. So I have time but patience is not my best trait. Heard 2 JA's Q5 this summer and couldn't get back to them. If I EVER get this oppurtunity again I want to take advantage of it.
