It's unfortunate that an interesting question gets dumped due to one or two going off on a tangent. I was keen to see just where many of these radios had turned up and I don't think this poll was

He may or may not be interested in an Amp of this magnitude but I have used the FT-817 to drive my Ten-Tec Hercules II solid state linear. It varies a little from band to band but will put out up to
