Oh yeah,,,, and a SOLID STATE repeater

Sorry dude, but I really don't think that term would apply any more.
Thought that stuff was done in the 70's when everything went to transistors
I've been running a GE Mastr II high band w/ a 4CX250 for years. Built like a brick shithouse. Still running with the original tube.
Oh, please understand that I am NOT picking on tubes. The high profile system we have in this area is a tube final Micor running 375 out the back and has been that for years as well.
What I am saying is your not going to find an ALL tube radio, get crystals for it and tune it up for what you can buy a used Kenwood repeater for. That stuff is either on the air in ham use or it's gone.
Not sure of your age, but there was a time that anything that had transistors in it at ALL, like a MASTRII was labeled as being SOLID STATE because transistors were the futher and it was 'cutting edge' technology. If you lived through the late 80's you will remember that anything to do with home audio got labeled 'DIGITAL READY' because of CD's coming into general consumer use. It wasn't that it had some special sauce applied or anything like that... it was just what manufactures did to sell their stuff.
Asking for a SOLID STATE piece of gear in this day and age just seems silly.
I would be asking for a programmable repeater that doesn't need crystals as those have become really expensive to get make for equipment needing them.
