I went to his site and cannot order they might have went out of business?

I have bought a Galaxy 2517 and the switches swr, nf and nb/anl still work but the detent part not holding switches in place or location. I see that this switch block is discontinued. Has anyone any ideas about repair or replacement?

I was using my Dentron Clipperton L today and all of a sudden I noticed smoke coming from case. I shut amp off and looked inside it had a burnt smell but I could not see any signs of places where burnt. Touched transformer and it was not hot anywhere. Tubes looked good. Band switch looked a...

Our local tech helped me converting Dentron amp to just 11 meters to bypass burnt wafer switch. It was really pretty easy. Amp will not work on other bands unless jumper wire is cut or removed. The copper jumper wire makes amp run on just 11 meters. Works great.

I have a hand wired Tram d201 it is working fine on receive but as I am transmitting the transmit output drops to zero and no output. Unkey and after a minute will transmit ok again. Any ideas?

Thank you nomadradio I am sure this amp was hot rodded for sure. I just know it will never be used on any other bands but 10-11

I picked up a Dentron Clipperton L and the 10 meter part of band switch is burnt up. Is there a way I can make this amp only work on 10 meters and do away with band switch???? I do not need the other bands.

I can tell one possible cause for burning out the pin link someone was over driving the amplifier. I have seen it many times. I have even did it myself

I was going to run 2 D&A transformers in parallel . In a phantom there is 850 v at tubes.

Thank you nomadradio. i am going to give it a try. Amp does not work now . I may ask more questions later.

I have a Apollo 500 and the transformer is bad it is a 1300v can I replace it with 2 transformers out of a D&A Phantom they are around 850v i believe. Here is one from Apollo.
