Looking for a Real amp for the Shack?


Yeah, it's interesting that Palstar bought the Commander line of amps. I didn't realize that until about a month ago. They are solid amps that can last you a lifetime. Those Tokyo Hi-Power solid state amps are nice, too. I've personally talked to a couple of people on the air that are using them and they rave about them. I would seriously consider one for the shack if I needed to replace the tube amp.
 
I would buy solid state as next one. Can be operated seconds after powering-up, on stand-by tube type is consuming a lot of power to keep tubes glow, solidstate not. They are more compact and fool proof.
I'm using russian made tube type anyway :D

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
