    Fatboy 1x2290 drive 2x2879 mobile 500 watt Radio Linear Amplifier

    So did steve actually fix it?? Believe me, when I sent it to him it didn't have output on any meter! I've always run this radio on low pwr with a TS500HDV. This radio has never had a real tune up, I ask steve to do a tune up but he wouldn't tell me anything but "it has bugs". Why do you think...

    Fatboy 1x2290 drive 2x2879 mobile 500 watt Radio Linear Amplifier

    That was on a radio shack meter on a hand mic, I didn't have my Dosy meter and I just got my D104 on it. The difference is big. The mic made all the difference. Low medium and high power are all the same?

    Fatboy 1x2290 drive 2x2879 mobile 500 watt Radio Linear Amplifier

    Now I don't know what to do... I've already spent $255 to get it fixed If I put anymore cash in it I'll have more in it than its worth!! Then the question where and who can I get to fix it? I got my D 104 on it and on low power & high power (the same) it dead keys 8w swings to 40w. If I can...

    Fatboy 1x2290 drive 2x2879 mobile 500 watt Radio Linear Amplifier

    I'm running a Galaxy 93T, to be honest I haven't heard many good reports on the KLV amps other than they're easy to blow up? I've heard that thy are kind of fragile. I don't know why amps are hard to find in stock! Texas stars are hard to find and price is gouged! I don't mind spending $$ for a...

    Fatboy 1x2290 drive 2x2879 mobile 500 watt Radio Linear Amplifier

    Been researching an affordable amp for SSB, I know this is over ten years ago, does anybody know if the Fatboy 1X2 has had the bugs worked out? I only wish I could find a texas star 350HDV that I could buy reasonably

    Yeah no locals here anymore! I look at the price of equipment and its no wonder. If you're like most you have a map or two on the wall of your shack? If you want to see where I am you'll see why I'm so isolated. Look at an Arkansas map, in the bottom S/W corner is a town called Eldorado. Now...

    I tried it bro, hear just fine. I want to say this, when I sent it off it was not putting out even low power, it might be the same transistor but it did not work/ That's the reason I sent it off! I do feel pretty stupid lol, I'm going to see what I can do about a little foot warmer, don't need...

    It's kind of you not to call me an idiot even if it's true. I ran a TS500HDV till lighting got it and my best equipment. Look bro fact is I'm having more trouble than I thought remembering some things. I've had MS for a couple years and 2 mini? strokes so I hope you can understand. I've met a...

    So sorry for the delay, I don't like to tell folks but I had to take some time off for my MS to chill out. As far as frequency on counter when you key it on full power (15-18 swing) Frequency stays in center. I'm going to give you everything as it is now but it's not making sense to me! The...

    I was led to believe that it was in fact a real Toshiba, $125.00. it's not the same one because I made sure I'd know my old one. I'll be back and try to give some better info. As far as tools I have a watt meter but it's just a radio shack so its just a good guess @true watts lol
