TAMPA AREA HAMS:

FREE to anyone wanting a working 1/4 KW CCS VHF amplifier - come pick it up ASAP.
  
The rack has a continuous duty 1500 VDC supply, powering an RF Deck -- pair of 8560 convection-cooled ceramic tubes.  It tunes down to 147 MHZ with 15W drive  To go lower it will need a little reworking of the Input/Output tuning lines.  In Amateur service class AB1/2 or C, this setup easily can push a KW input, if you increase the plate voltage to 2200 VDC -- makes a great 2M linear amplifier!!!

Call me before I revert back to "...someday..." thinking.
