[TenTec] Re: Tuners

[George, W5YR]

John, how does this relate to the high-speed circuit breakers built in to
TT power supplies and required if non-TT supplies are used? 

Just curious, since I read your story and then I read other postings about
how a low impedance load drives the collector currents to 30 amps almost
instantly and if the fast breaker doesn't operate, poof! there go the
finals . . .

Straighten me out!   <:}
