1. Inexpensive tubes: the AL82 uses a pair of rugged 3-

500z tubes.

2. Fast warm-up time:

seconds of warm-up time.

3. SSB/CW switch: the bias voltage is switched to provide

the best linearity on SSB or the lowest dissipation on

CW operation.

4. ALC Indicator: the drive level is detected to provide a

control voltage for the exciter. ALC prevents over-

driving of the linear and reduces distortion from ex-

cessive drive power.

5. Vernler Plate and Load Adjustments: both tuning con-

trols have vernler 6:1 reduction drives for smooth

tuning.

6. Two Illuminated Panel Meters: the AL-82 has two il-

luminated panel meters. The Grid Current meter provides

a continuous reading of grid current and indicates proper

operation of the amplifier. The other meter reads Plate

Voltage (HV), Plate Current (IP), Peak RF Watts ( P O )

and ALC.

7. Operate/Standby Switch: filament and plate voltages are

maintained while allowing the amplifier to be bypassed

for "barefoot'' operation.

8. 12 Volt Auxiliary Jack: 12 volts at 100 mA is provide for

accessories such as the ATR-15 Antenna tuner.

9. XMT Indicator LED: provides a front panel indication of

proper amplifier keying by the exciter during operation.

Caution: This amplifier must be disconnected from the

power mains before removing the cover. See the warning on

page 10.

Metering: multimeter: plate current, plate voltage,

drive/ALC, power output (PEP watts). Grid: grid current
