This is a 110v plug in the wall base box. It is not a power supply/amp combo. Just an amp. Contains 2 x 2290's and works the same way you would expect any 2 pill 2290 low drive amp to work. 4 watts max input. 3.5~4 W input will see full 250 watt output on a whistle. 1.5~3W in sees about 225 out. Easy 175~200 watts swing with normal talking. Dead key is 45~65 watts depend on the input wattage. HI setting ads 10~15 watts more than the LOW and again depending upon input wattage. Switches for ON/OFF, Recv Preamp and HI/LOW. Red LED indicators for ON, HI & Key Down. Has Automatic sideband meaning there is no extra switch for sideband. Just go to sideband and talk. Long heavy duty grounded power cord. Works 100% as should. I have fully tested and used this amp. Works 10 of 10 and looks 9 of 10. Very clean and well cared for by previous owner. Contains large, heavy transformer and large filter capacitor. Use by itself or would make a great driver for a bigger high drive amp. Feel free to PM with any questions.

$225 shipped, firm. Will securely double box with lots of padding. Includes insurance and Delivery Confirmation and will email you the tracking number.
