> 144: 8877 in 1/2 wave stripline configuration. Tube at one end, vacuum variable at the other. antenna loading by capacitive probe (adjustable disc) at tube end. Input circuit is series L shunt C series L. Mounted behind 7" rack panel. has 1 amp plate meter and switchable "multimeter" that reads grid current or power fwd and reflected. Power is read by Jones Micromatch on back panel. Zener diode bias, filament transformer and blower are all on there. BNC in, N out. HV via HN connector. Tube's in good shape. This is the amp i've been using all along, it puts out well over 1.5KW.. $500 o.b.r.o

> 432: 8874 in 1/2 wave stripline. tuning and loading by flappers. 7" rack panel. Grid and plate meters, blower, filament. Zener bias. last time i used it put out 600 watts so i guess the tube is good, though it IS the original from back when an 8874 cost 50 bucks from Barry electronics. grid and plate meters and power meter switchable fwd and rev. (Jones Micromatch) $350 o.b.r.o.
