Don't assume that the next amp will use a tube at all. My Herc II may be old
technology, but the solid-state world has advanced significantly. If I were
allowed a wish here, it would be for a solid-state, full-legal-power,
no-tune amp that follows the Omni VI+ & VII, Jupiter, Orion I & II with band
changes just as the Herc II does.
Call it a Hercules III if you want, or any other name TenTec chooses. Just
as long as it follows the TenTec traditions of quality, QSK and solid
performance. It's a shame it'll match the new rigs instead of my Omni VI+
