Michael Melland asked:  I'd like to hear from owners of this amp and solicit
any comments good or bad about it.  

Michael, I have the Ten-Tec Omni 6 Plus and the Centaur Amplifier and I must 
say they are a great pair.  CW or SSB the amp followes the Omni, it makes 
operating a joy.  I have my vox delay set at "2" and the amp keys with my 
voice.  I can't say enough of the CW operating, the QSK is the worlds best and 
this is an amplifier.

The fan is a bit noisy, however if the mic level and processor are set for good 
audio the fan noise is not bad.  One more thing about fan noise, use vox and 
keep the delay to the short side, the fan will not be heard set this way.

I have owned two Heathkit amps, SB220 and SB200.  The Centaur is by far much 
better then either.  If you want to schedule a time, I would be glad to get on 
the air so you can hear the Centaur.

73 and good luck
