Only need two tubes (572B) for the 600w.

Why not pick up a used Centaur? Basically the same amp as an
811H but with
Ten-Tec quality, built-in QSK, and set up to work with all
Ten-Tec rigs.
You can pick up a pristine used one for $600 or under... a real
bargain when
you consider what an Ameritron PSK-5 adds to the price of an
AL811H. Best
of all, your station's all Ten-Tec!
I dunno why Ten-Tec doesn't put out a limited run of this amp,
modified to
use (and take advantage of) the 572B tube. I bet that 100 of
them would
sell in a couple of months.
