Interesting Ebay item


Shill bidding at its finest right there... obviously there's some people jacking up the price for the seller, or just a couple people having fun. :lol:



~Cheers~
 
with a dozen different bidders?
300 for a "400" watt amp isn't hard to see. I've seen these run for decades with no problems and high user satisfaction.
 
Seems legit to me. I watched a 1x4 that needed to be gutted and rebuilt with at least 1 suspect pill go for over 300 two weeks ago. My max on it was 200. Obviously I was out bid.

"High user satisfaction"? I guess some people love unreliable Raven 25s and others will only trust their lives to Glock 17s......different strokes.

I see this gem has a class AB1 sticker on it too. Anyone know what tube is used inside? Judging by the price, heatsink and AB1 logo, it must use a conduction cooled triode like an 8873. Nothing says the builder was clueless better than adding the 1 after the AB on a solid state amp. That's as good as calling an SB-220 a MOSFET amp.

interesting choice of words. if you consider working for 20 years to be unreliable, what does it take to be reliable?
and I'm not saying it quit working at 20 years either, last I knew it was still going.
the 600 I knew of was fried because of user error, but it was abused for 11 years before he melted it.
I'd be happy to put my sig sauer against your glock any day.

    Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Is 30 ohms worth worrying about in a 100’ run of rg8u ?
