Thanks for the info Gary. I'm still learning about the Titan but it seems to be a real nice amp.

Thanks,Don

Don,


There may be a problem with the original plate choke going into parasitic oscillation during tune up on 15 meters. (been there, done that, and had it factory replaced/upgraded). Also some additional factory upgrade/modifications to the LOAD / TUNE capacitors to reduce arc over between plates. I'm also an original owner of a Titan 425 low s/n and its not been back since the mods were performed by the factory.

Best regards,
Gary - AB9M

Hello All,
Just purchased a Titan 425 amp from the original owner. This one was bought new by him in 1988 and has never been sent back to Ten-Tec for any reason. The amp is just like new and was used very little since new. I have been told that Ten-Tec did make some upgrades to this amp so I'm wondering what might they be and should I send this one in to be upgraded. It is a 00415 serial number. Still 100% factory original. This one has the Hi/Lo voltage switch on the front panel. Amp seems to be working perfect with full output.


                                                 Thanks,Don
