Hey...any help ? I have been in radio since the mid-1960's but mostly amateur radio. (excuse me !) I am not CB biased. Use it off and on.

I met Lester's Truck Stop. (on internet). I have snooped endless for reviews and see some terrible ones. O-you get the products after any pay protection has expired ?

On an email he is the shortest most nasty person I ever heard from.(not provoked)

Now I see he is selling HORNET AMPLIFIERS. I am not good at CB lingo. Why the H are they under a page link labeled CW TRANSMITTERS ??? Hey..if you get the product you get no schematic and guess the support !! What caught my attention he has some now with a band choice. 15 meters. -- and some 20 meters....

Hey..I could maybe use a 15 meter amp as nobody sells them. (just the one band)

I ask him what the driving power requirements are and get a 4 letter word reply. NOBODY WANTS TO OVERDRIVE AN AMPLIFIER and put it into meltdown...right ? Where are all the 15 meter radios people are going to use to drive it ? You all know a common CB is by regs is 4 watts. (yes...I always thought totally crazy) Of coarse most use amps I assume. I am not the government.

Pay for a HORNET AMP for 15 or 20 meters and drive it with what ? As known a normal amateur transceiver puts out 100 watts that can usually be turned down.

O-I forgot..these are HORNET CW TRANSMITTERS-------

A little help ?
