Basically, it is a linear power amplifier with a peak envelope power of 2.0 kw. The bandwidth is 6.0 mHz. Anyone know of those lesser electron tube manufacturers who might make such a beast? All the Eimac/Varian and E.E.V. catalogs seem to have are really large beasts in the 30-55 kw output range and up. It would seem to me that using a klystron/klystrode (or TWT) would be far simpler than construcing coaxially tuned cavities for conventional tetrode power tubes. Thanks...
