I fired the Dentron up on 40m 7295 AM signal.
200 watts base AM.
Dentron did just fine.
After about 3 minutes at 200 watts I used to smell the old resistors BURNING.
The new .5 ohm resistor is installed now underneath.
A 10 watt resistor. Formerly Dentron used 2 one ohm resistors in parallel
for .5 ohms and this was about 2 watts dissipation value.
I did not try it full power up to 1 KW to see if it would hold up.
NO drama needed.
yet.
