[RTTY] Amp for RTTY

[morris_karen@bellsouth.net]

Tom:

I have used an AL-811H on a Dxpedition and have had it apart for a look.
This is a light duty amp built for low cost and I would not recommend
this amp for RTTY.  If you did buy one, I would retube it with 572B's
and keep the output to 300 watts.

73,

Hi All

I'm looking for an amp to kick up the RTTY signal a bit.  Don't want one
of 
those 1500 watt key down rigs--just 250-300 watts would be enough for me

(right now I'm running 60-70 watts).

I have been looking at the AL-811H lately and I noticed that on QTH.com 
classifieds there are a lot of them.  Are there some issues with these
amps? 
I used to have a FL-2100 that I ran about 300 watts with, and lilked it,
but 
it didn't have 160 on it.  RTTY contesting with low power and small
antennas 
leaves a little to be desired during this point of the cycle.  73 Tom
