[TenTec] Titan 425

[Don Knight]

Thanks for the info Gary. I'm still learning about the Titan but it seems to 
be a real nice amp.

                                                    Thanks,Don

Don,

There may be a problem with the original plate choke going into parasitic 
oscillation during tune up on 15 meters. (been there, done that, and had it 
factory replaced/upgraded). Also some additional factory 
upgrade/modifications to the LOAD / TUNE capacitors to reduce arc over 
between plates. I'm also an original owner of a Titan 425 low s/n and its 
not been back since the mods were performed by the factory.

Best regards,
Gary - AB9M

  Hello All,
  Just purchased a Titan 425 amp from the original owner. This one was 
bought new by him in 1988 and has never been sent back to Ten-Tec for any 
reason. The amp is just like new and was used very little since new. I have 
been told that Ten-Tec did make some upgrades to this amp so I'm wondering 
what might they be and should I send this one in to be upgraded. It is a 
00415 serial number. Still 100% factory original. This one has the Hi/Lo 
voltage switch on the front panel. Amp seems to be working perfect with full 
output.

                                                  Thanks,Don
