The one reported issue with all of the Ameritron amps is
some concern with the output Circuit and RTTY. There have
been a few reports about the 80 meter coil overheating and
deforming when run at full power RTTY. On the other hand,
1500 Watts RTTY is a rather serious torture test for any
amplifier.
