My home-build HF PA.

The frontview of the almost finished amplifier. ( PA tuning&input tuning scale not yet finished)

The HV section, the separate fuses for the transformers are visible at right lower corner

The anode current is adjustable at the frontpanel, the meter-scale and other front-panel text is home made with special software made by F5BU called GALVA. It is freeware and downloadable on his website.

I used water-slide decal paper for transferring the printed text on the front and meter scales.

softstart is a must with this size of transformers !

 SWR bridge measuring forward & reflected power.  It is equipped with an extra output selection relay and a T/R relay.
