- I am the owner of a Ten Tec Titan 425 amplifier (SN 1005) since about 2007. It has been operating trouble-free on all bands 160 thru 10m. The exciter is a Ten Tec Omni VII. I utilize a Keying Loop ci

- The amplifier arcs whether it is driving the tri-bander antenna or the dummy load. There is no fault with either the dummy load or antenna. I am assuming the switch is somehow damaged, possibly due t

- Thank you for your comments, Doug. Although the solder job on the switch terminals looks good, resoldering would be a cheap and easy potential fix. In looking at the mechanical design of the Titan Ba

- I recently had reason to look at the purity of the B+ supply voltage for my Ten-Tec Titan amplifier. Not having HV measurement equipment, I hooked a scope probe to the end of the voltage divider circ

- Thanks for all comments so far. As many have suggested, my test set-up was suspect due to a possible ground loop. I repeated the test with a 3-prong to 2-prong adapter on the scope power plug to make
