Swan Mark II amp designed to handle the Swan 700CX ?

[BBB]

I've always wondered if the Swan Mark II amps could take the full output of a Swan 700CX transceiver?

If so, at the 700CX's 300+ PEP output then in a sense, is the Swan Mark II considered a "high drive" amp?

I have this amp with a Dahl xformer in it.

I would reduce the drive so as not to exceed plate and grid current on the 3-500Z, I have a 700CX and I do not use an amp with it,

The Mark II can be used with the SWAN 700CX...but only with the ALC feedback circuit in use...This circuit reduces the output of xceiver to keep from overdriving the amp.
So NO you can not drive a pair of 3-500z's with 300 watts

Swan MARKII is listed as an accessory for the 700CX, states 100W max drive, do not se an ALC circuit but it may be in the acc plug, ( I did not take time to look at schematic
)
