[TenTec] Hercules II

[Steve Ellington N4LQ]

That is odd why your 60a breaker would kick out like that OM. I run the same
supply on 240v with a pair of 20a breakers and never had them trip. I went
throught the same problem with dial lamps. Really blew me away when I found
I couldn't turn off the amp due to dial lamps being the wrong current! I
only use the amp when the guy on the other end complains about QRM or QRN
and sometimes when I want to be first in a pile up. It's never failed to
take care of these problems. QSK is great except for a little relay noise.
Effectively, it turns your TT rig into a 500w transceiver. Band changing is
just a matter of pushing the band button on your rig and no tune up is
required.
