Nice amp sir. How long is jumper cable from radio to the amp?

[@alfredkwok9239]

could not see one TX in the whole video and the amplifier is only on stand-by mode ? Why ? The amp is dead ?

how can you still do something like that to yourself in 2022? Heavy, sluggish, loud, not remotely controllable, expensive, it won't get any easier and certainly not cheaper to get a replacement tube at some point..... and and and thank God that's not my problem.... enjoy it anyway....
