Hmmmm,
I seem to remember that P&H made a '500 watt' (input) amp that used highly
cheap and plentiful 1625's. If memory serves me, it was a direct copy from an
article out of QST. There was one slight modification. You had to either tie or
un-tie the screen from the cathode(?). I've seen the article but it would mean
rooting through a stack of slightly moldy QST's ;>)

[Steve Katz] No sweat. I've never seen that one, it is probably
even older than the GSB-200, I'd guess. 4 x 807 = about 400Wdc input,
though, or maybe 200W output power. Doesn't seem worthwhile for a 100W
exciter...maybe if somebody has a QRP station it might help. But I'd bet
this item would be worth much more in "collector's" value if mated with
whatever exciter it was intended to go with, to make a station... -WB2WIK/6
