This Quadra system is new in the box. The box has been opened but the equipment has never been removed or used. VL-1000 is an all-solid-state linear amplifier operating on the 160 to 15 meter and the 6 meter amateur bands at a power level of 1000 watts on CW and SSB (500 watts on continuous data modes such as RTTY). The VL-1000 includes a built-in antenna tuner with 240 memories for tuning data, and microprocessor control of the tuning circuitry. The VL-1000 features input jacks for two different exciters, as well as four antenna jacks for connection of antennas for different bands. Extensive self-test, system monitoring, and protection circuits are provided, with status and tuning information being displayed on a huge LCD panel.
The separate VP-1000 Power Supply Unit provides the +48 volts required by the PA transistors,as well as all required control voltages for the amplifier. The VL-1000 normally is powered via 220 volt AC mains, although it can be operated, at the 500 watt level, from 117 volt AC power.
