They are still available...... Every bit as good as what you see from two other very well known, long time builders that now have to use HG transistors...... But better because these have original TOSHIBA 2SC2879 transistors...... Just sayin'.....

BC, I can't hardly believe you've never heard of ZERO Antennas ...... Been around for awhile. Very good quality and beefy construction. Amateur Ham radio antennas......

LOL .....Watch out what you wish for........ I have a NOS (late 70's to early 80"s), brand new in the box, box definitely has some wear and tear....... Super Penetrator 500 Antenna The antenna has been well protected.......

I use the Alpha Delta switch for switching between radios...... I use the very heavy duty MFJ-2704, Gold Plated contact switches for switching between amplifiers....... In my experience, I have found the MFJ-2703 and 2704 switches better for the high power switching........

Yes, same situation here .......

Old style robust relays, yes..... Newer style switch banks......

I'm really not surprised that there hasn't been any responses....... But you can't get amplifiers with genuine Toshiba transistors for the same low prices that you can with the lower quality HG transistors........

That website has been up for quite some time now...... I don't think they are the actual owners of the Texas Star amplifier line ....... Galaxy radio is still the current owner .......

Well, the upgrades do increase the cost of production significantly...... And the Texas Star amplifiers will perform pretty dang good as they are built, just not to their full potential....... The upgrades improve the reliability, and do improve the performance. In my opinion, the most to gain...

Well, now the video I saw did not exactly say that....... It said that Texas Star was going to cease production in the very near future ....... And that an un-named, current, long term employee is very interested in purchasing the company, and is looking into doing that.

I don't intend to hijack a previous post .......... But, I have several Texas Star amplifiers for sale also...... All amplifiers do have GENUINE, ORIGINAL Toshiba 2SC2879 transistors in them...... All have wiring upgrade....... All work very well ....... Couple of DX350V's ....... $500 Several...

The KM3KM Mercury Amplifiers are very good HF amplifiers....... I have been running the Mercury LUX for about 15 months now, and it performs great. I do have the band data cable connected to my ICOM 7610 so as to reap the benefits of the amplifier following the radio wherever it goes. I do like...

I have a 4 element yagi horizontal good for 6m, 10m, and 12m..... Also have an 80m OCF good for 7 bands.....of course with a tuner...... And also have a tilt plate at the top so the horizontal will stay in horizontal position all the way to the ground .......

A Heavy Sad Heart Dear Fellow Hams and Friends, April 25, 2024 Dear Fellow Hams and Friends, It is with a sad heart as I write this letter. As many...

I have a 45' free standing tower...... I knew I wasn't getting any younger or stronger, so I planned all that into the build-out when the tower went up. We now have a setup where I pull the base pins and the wife connects the ac power to the winch installed on a fulcrum point for that purpose...

Yes, same here .......
