Can anyone help with the RF output specs of the Alpha 77S with the two
hole 8877? As an interesting winter retrofit project, I'm planning to
hot rod a currently manufactured amplifier by replacing the transformer
with the exact replacement Peter Dahl Alpha 77S Hipersil and the
installation of two 8877's. My concern is that I can get 2200W output
with 100W of drive with a single 3cx1500A7 and 4500VDC on the plate and
was wondering if the effort is worth the addition of the second tube. I
certainly would appreciate hearing from anyone with the amplifier.Any
comments may keep me from embarking on a fool's mission! Best regards,
Ron W2CQM/3
