Dave,

I owned one of the DTR2000L amps. The powersupply was weak, but be careful beefing up the powersupply. Once the powersupply is up to the task of the 8877, there is not enough air being blown through the tube and over the band switch and coil to keep from overheating. Also the plate choke should be replaced if you plan to use 17 meters, RF Products has a plate choke works great. But remember when that amp was designed 1K INPUT was the regulation, so if you are looking to get to legal limit, replace the fan with a blower.

Good luck and 73,
Dudley

Just came into ownership of this puppy

I understand that there are numerous mods that will add to the stability of
this amp. Can some one direct me to information?? I understand that Peter
Dahl has upgrade transformers for this unit. What experience have you had
with this upgrade?

Thanks for taking the time.
Best Regards
Dave
