I still have the following available, with new, lower prices. I can
demo all the gear, and will travel reasonable distances to deliver even.

Ameritron AL-84 4-tube amp. Currently wired for 110v, it measured ~400w
out on SSB into my 80 meter dipole. It has a replacement cover that I
think was part of a plan for better airflow, along with a muffin fan
bolted to the top that I tossed. Manual included. $275
