I believe it's a case of "If you have to ask......."

The other two tunas have list prices.

This is a custom build, you pay your money and they build it.  Definitely not for everyone..  And better than MFJ quality Smiley

3200 Euros + shipping

That's about 3200 x 1.16 = big bucks + shipping

Looks nice, though, doesn't it.

What sort of dummy load is that? Variable?   Tongue

Ought to work fine with a <1:1.5 SWR?

Ok, so I am skeptical, and the price is way too high for that build quality,
imho.

It says it can do 350 watts on AM. I wonder if that is 350 watts from a linear or straight out of a classic class C rig? I think there is a difference with a Class C classic rig with perhaps more wild peak excursions of HV RF over what you would see via an amplifier? It's known in some circles as The Wile Coyote Class C Complex!
