Black Cat JB-2000 linear amplifier

Those things were monsters back in the day.

@donnyp1966 Yep, 2kw peak out back in the day would be Super Bowl or Channel Master power. Here in Detroit, you need it to just chat on the main 2 channels. BTW, as of right now, I actually run QRP (Barefoot) and I get no LUV errr respect from my fellow CBer's. Still perfecting my Broadcast station with asymmetrical mod

Now that would wake up my MK 3 , what do these go for ?

And thanks again for these vids, keep them coming. Don

[tramdr]

@moviking They go for about $500 average on Fleabay when someone can sneak em thru.

Good 'ol amp. Seems a little low on voltage, but hey that thing will last forever at 2KV...

[zLOSTNOMOREz]

Better check your meter.There no way the peak and average should be that close!

3-500z amps are not garbage. Do your homework before you run your mouth

I have a black cat linear 300 w for sale

[camflex66]

I don't think your supposed to lean 3-500z's over like that, but nice video though

[tramdr]

@camflex66 Thanks, I think you are right. I think I remember reading that too, about 35 years ago when I was really into this stuff. Peace.

Can you say,"DIRTY" amplifier? SPLATTER all across the band.GARBAGE!

[tramdr]

@1OFGODSOWN ummm without the driver, its basically a sb-220 part for part.

[TheZeke1974]

@tramdr Ignore the idiots...

[lardass789]

I've had one of these sitting unused in my basement for the last 20 years.

[tramdr]

@lardass789 unused as in new? You could get a lot of dough for it then. Peace.

Nice job for no driver and weak tubes!
