I don't even want to know what it costs. :hand:

Oh, and check out the weight. :ugh:

[NQ6U]

Awesome. Reminds me of one of those old Henry Radio console amps.

[W3WN]

Interesting.

Impressive.

But if you have to ask, you can't afford it...

[KG4CGC]

put it back in your pants ... shhhhh.

Do not toy with Happy Fun Amp.

No RF output specs, but it's pulling nearly 10KVA off the AC mains? :chin:

"CQ contest." :yes:

"CQ contest." :yes:It's using a 3CX3000A7, and the 'Directional Through-line PEP Wattmeter' is allegedly rated at 5 kW.

The tube is rated at 4000 W maximum plate dissipation( http://www.cpii.com/docs/datasheets/76/3CX3000A7.pdf ). I think I'll let the data sheet specs speak for themselves.

There are PLENTY of Incredibly wealthy hams that will buy them, and have their ACCOUNTANTS pay for it. The company will have BANNER SALES on them!

According to a few folk, that is.

No excuses.

They won't sell many of these overseas, because the DX stations there like to run 7 KV @ 3 A input commercial transmitters. ;)

I remember those ads. They used to be on the back cover of QST in the mid-70's.

[wa6mhz]

That ad would be prosecuted as CHILD PORN these days!!!

[W3WN]

That ad would be prosecuted as CHILD PORN these days!!!I believe it.

For example: Have you seen the new Coppertone sunscreen ads? They brought back the little girl & playful puppy imagery... with one modification; now the puppy (when playfully grabbing on the swimsuit) doesn't expose any below-the-waistline skin.

[KG4CGC]

I remember when hinies were funny.

[KJ3N]

"Put some fire in your wire."

I'm not old enough for that to be a problem. ;)

Yes, I'll get off your lawn now. :lol:

I was just laffin' because that appears to be the ad line for that Prometheus amp. Reminds me a bit of a Ford Power-Stroke. :lol:

What was that Carlin line? "Doesn't take Fellini to figure that one out."

[PA5COR]

Approx. 40Amps at 230VAC
I tink my 16 amp 230 volt 50 Hz outlet is a bit too small.... darn it...

I think both ads are still in trouble. BOTH little girls are still TOPLESS, and we all know that girls of all ages (until over 18 ) must be properly dressed in BURKAS today here in the US! No more babies in just diapers!

Is that because of cowardly, bending over backwards, appeasement minded liberals?

[W3WN]

[KG4CGC]

Oh crap sorry. Everything is political today.

[WØTKX]

Somebody in a wealthy HOA nieighborhood will buy one, and run it into a custom Hi-Q high power screwdriver antenna.

No excuses. :lol:

I know someone running a $14K FTdx9000 into a hidden vertical in a HOA housing.

That at least could have reason behind it.

[W3WN]

I know someone running a $14K FTdx9000 into a hidden vertical in a HOA housing.If he can afford a $14K FTdx9000, what the hell is he doing in HOA housing?

[KG4CGC]

If he can afford a $14K FTdx9000, what the hell is he doing in HOA housing?

His wife played with the Barbie Dream House when she was a child.

[kf0rt]

You say that like HOA housing is the same as Section 8. :lol:

Around here, every new housing development built in the last 10-15 years has an HOA. I believe that's mandated by law (developer's lobby, anyone?). I drive by a few newer "McMansion" communities every day that are full of huge $500-700K houses on tiny lots. They all have HOAs.

Ha!

[W7XF]

Well.....lookie what I found out:

(Including consumption tax) \ ¥ 850,000 a standard price = 10,687.73 USD (using 6/26/12 exchange rate)

Still........

GET OFF MY LAWN....er....VAGINA :lol:

[KG4NEL]

Awesome. Reminds me of one of those old Henry Radio console amps.

It reminds me of what held my beer in the dorm.

That's cheaper than I thought.

[KG4CGC]

I processed a similar cogitation. Uncannily similar.

[XE1/N5AL]

I've gotta get one of those amps! Sure, we can only run 200 Watts max., on 30 meters. But, I'll sleep better at night knowing that the available standby power of the 3CX3000A7 tube is behind my 30 meter operations -- just in case!

[N7YA]

That's a person with too much money, a small penis, and not enough brains. :roll:


I would have a K3, decent amp...i dont need more than 500-600w, and at least 6 acres of paid for land to put up an 8 element quad and legit longwire setup. After this, if we can afford it, no more HOA...ever! Im sick of those goddamned diaper wearing nazis!

[KC2UGV]

Wouldn't say "most", but rather "many".

[W5GA]

Wouldn't say "most", but rather "many".
I'd say relatively few.

[W3WN]

Small Penis Syndrome.most gun owners have the same problemAnd you know this... how?

Personal experience? :evil: :twisted:

[ Aw, c'mon, you know SOMEONE had to say it, the opening for that wisecrack was just too good! ]

[N8YX]

I'd say relatively few.
I'd say someone is attention-whoring again.
