12 years now and still no problemo Time Owned: more than 12 months.
10 years after my first review and the RF-110A is still loafing along at 1.5KW with no failures or loss of output I am running it with my IC-7700 now using separate RX-TX lines from the radio, the TX is feeding a 30dB attenuator making it virtually impossible for the Icom to ever see high reflected power and the Harris does the antenna switching internally.

Great amplifier. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I agree with Mike W4MDL/W0YR about the RF-110.
I had the use of the RF-110 amp with the Harris
270-5 system which used the RF530 receiver and
the solidstate transceiver to drive the 110's.
Had 3 of them in operation. 1 of the amps had
the 8122 drivers, the other two had the 4cx250b
but all performed excellently. They will run at
the designed 1kw pep output level for day after
day, week after week for months or years.
Expensive if one has to replace the tubes but
they were primarily in government service so
the replacement costs not a factor. I might
add that the RF110/124 system was also a part
of the RF-131 system of which that exciter did
all modes including ISB.
