Page 6 states, when the amplifier is in the Single Sideband mode, SSB or CW,
the amplifier is in the linear mode and delivers 1200+ peak to the antenna.
Tuned or unturned, if the toroids or tuned circuits are running hot, then
too much RF is not going to the antenna, a re-think of circuit components,
and design is a good idea.
Am signing off the thread for now. Thanks to everyone for the input.
