There appear to be a stash of the TV channel 2 1KW amp modules
available. They supposedly work fine on 6M without any tuning, though
you need to add cooling fans, T/R switching, 50V power supply, etc.
The seller is asking $250 each plus shipping. Supposedly you can
parallel a pair of them to get 1.5KW out with high duty cycle (requires
building combiners).
I'm thinking of getting a pair and wonder if any of the MVUS folks have
experience with them, or might want to join in an order.
Thanks and 73,
John
Is this what the guy is using by any chance:

This was recently posted be Lance and Bill Heap has them for sale. Yahoo post 19082 in WSJT groups

As some of you may be are aware, I was involved a few years ago in adapting these
high quality surplus amplifiers for use on 6m. Typically, 10 to 15w drive provides 1
kw output power. Information on how to build an effective cooling system and low pass
filter (along with links to all the specifications) are shown on my website:
http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/HarrisAmps.htm
There also is information on the above website on how to combine a pair of them if
you want to create a solid state amp capable of 1500w+ continuous output for use on
digital modes.
I have recently been advised of another source of these Channel 2 amplifiers. Bill
Heap has a number of these in storage, along with the rear panel RF output and RF
input/DC power cables with the unique Harris connectors. All you would need to put
these on 6m would be to construct the low pass filters and mount cooling fans on top
of them. And of course, provide 50VDC.
If you are interested in gearing up for 6m EME or a QRO Es season, please contact
Bill directly:

Hi John,
Don't know if there are any 6m/ch2 amps left, but I'd like one if there
are. I can send a check now and I'd like to wait until Hamvention to
pick it up if possible.

Hi Bruce -- I've asked how many units are available. I'll let you know when I hear back. No problem holding for you but he shipped units separately so you could just have it delivered directly to home if you want.
