What they didn't say is the key was sending out dots not a constant signal. That information came directly from Alpha 10 years ago.

I guess if you were in one of the cheap-water states you could just hook it up to a hose and run water through it to a drain or out to the lawn.? - Jerry, KF6VB
For amp testing I use either a 1KW Bird oil-cooled load or the Altronic Omegaline shown below.? It's a compact 5KW no-time-limit test load, good up to 2 GHz provided there's ample water flow.? At 2KW, the output water is lukewarm.? For permanent installations, a flow switch can be added to kill transmitter power if the outlet water volume drops below the switch's flow threshold.? If flow drops or is impeded in any way, the switch prevents the internal glass resistor from shattering.? ? ?
